Kursets målsætning | |||||||||||||||||||
The objective of the course is to give the students a thorough knowledge of fermented food and of the importance of micro-organisms (with emphasis on lactic acid bacteria) for quality. | |||||||||||||||||||
Kursusindhold | |||||||||||||||||||
The following subjects will be included: taxonomy, identification, genetic and physiology, metabolism, theory of fermentation, product formation and microbial interactions involving lactic acid bacteria, bacteriophages, yeast and fungi. The course will also give a knowledge of fermentation and probiotic properties of lactic acid bacteria and yeast. Lactic acid bacteria, yeast and fungi are important for production of fermented food. Knowledge of the role of the micro-organisms for product quality (shelf-life, texture, taste, appearance and food safety) will give the students a background to decide on the use of starter cultures and evaluate which of the properties of the micro-organisms that will be wanted or unwanted in food fermentation. | |||||||||||||||||||
Undervisningsform | |||||||||||||||||||
The course includes lectures, praticals, an excursion, seminars and project reports. The project report will be based on a fermented product examined in the praticals and it forms the basis of the examination. The course will contain common lectures in the first 7 weeks with 076518, Dairy Microbiology. | |||||||||||||||||||
