Name a few ways food are treated to prevent foodborne illness | salt, sugar, smoke, fermentation, drying, pasteurization, refrigeration, freezing, irradiation, canning, chemical preservation, aseptic processing |
This breaks down chemical bonds, cell walls, and DNA to control the growth of insects, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. It is safe according to the FDA and requires a Radura symbol. | Food Irradiation |
Bacteria invade intestinal wall via toxin contained in organism. Takes > 4hr to hit. | infection |
bacteria produce toxin that is secreted into food. Takes < 4hr to hit | intoxication |
