Study Notes
Food Safety
- HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is a systematic approach to ensure food safety by identifying, evaluating, and controlling hazards in the food production process.
Pest Control
- Effective pest control is crucial in ensuring food safety as pests can contaminate food and cause illness.
Food Contamination
- Identifying common microorganisms that contaminate food and water is vital as they can cause foodborne illnesses, such as Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria.
- These microorganisms can cause a range of symptoms, including diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal cramps, and can be life-threatening in certain individuals, such as the elderly, young children, and people with weakened immune systems.
