Chapter 28 Applied and Industrial Microbiology
Foods are preserved by: • Drying • Osmotic pressure (salt or sugar) • Fermentation
Industrial Food Canning Figure 28.1
Commercial Sterilization to Destroy C. botulinum Endospores • 12D treatment kills 1012 endospores • Surviving endospores of thermophilic anaerobes cause spoilage with gas • Or flat-sour spoilage
Food Preservation • Presterilized materials assembled into packages and aseptically filled (Aseptic packaging) • Gamma radiation kills bacteria, insects, and parasitic worms • High-energy electrons Figure 28.4
Cheese • Curd: solid casein from lactic acid bacteria and rennin • Whey: liquid separated from curd • Hard cheeses produced by lactic acid bacteria • Semisoft cheeses ripened by Penicillium on surface Figure 28.8a
Ionizing Radiation Table 28.2
Alcoholic Beverages and Vinegar • Beer and ale are fermented starch • Malting: Germinating barley converts starch to maltose and glucose • Yeast ferment sugars to ethyl alcohol + CO2
