    Study Notes

    Biological Hazards in Food Manufacturing

    • Contamination of food by microorganisms can lead to biological hazards.
    • Poor practices in food manufacturing create optimal conditions for harmful pathogens to grow.

    Sources of Contamination

    • Inadequate and improper storage can lead to contamination.
    • Contamination can occur during food preparation.
    • Food processing, including cooking and cooling, can also be a source of contamination.
    • Packing and distribution of food can also lead to contamination.
    • Cross-contamination, such as raw foods coming into contact with ready-to-eat foods, can cause contamination.
    • Poor personal hygiene can contribute to contamination.
    • Using ingredients past their use-by date can also lead to contamination.
