Course Introduction
Laboratory food
Laboratory food testing or food safety inspection is the process of ensuring food safety and quality in all aspects, including medical, through random sampling or specific quantities of food at manufacturing, distribution, or storage facilities. It involves specialized laboratories and control mechanisms to ensure compliance with standards and specifications. The random samples are taken using various methods to determine their quality according to several systems, including visual, chemical, microbiological tests, and others.
Laboratory tests are also conducted to check for genetically modified foods, which are linked to numerous diseases, especially cancers. These tests also consider issues related to experimentation, potential contamination, and secondary effects, as well as various standards that affect food quality, including environmental, industrial, health, consumer, and quality standards.
Course objective
- Understand the elements of laboratory testing and food inspection and sampling methods.
- Identify the types of laboratory tests according to the type and nature of food and international standards.
- Learn about the tools used in various laboratory tests.
- Recognize the risks associated with poor food quality and the risk factors in the spread of foodborne diseases and epidemics.
- Understand the long-term health impacts of low-quality processed foods on human health and the risks of certain materials used in their production.
