Food Packaging Technology
Packaging is today indispensible vehicle to maintain the quality of foods during storage, transport and handling. It is essential need of today’s food industry to protect food products from outside influences and damage, to hold the food products together and provide consumers with ingredient and nutritional profile. In addition, it helps minimizing the use of chemical additives and reducing the impact of packaging waste on the environment (Marsh and Bugusu, 2007). Now days, the demand for safe and high quality foods, as well as changes in consumer preferences have led to the development of innovative and novel approaches in food packaging technology (Kerry et al 2006). It is well known that, new food packaging technologies developed during …show more content…
Major components of biosensor
a) Biologically Active Material: a biological derived material is the one that interact with the food under study .e.g. Antibodies enzymes, microorganisms etc.
b) Detector Element: the detector element which is also called as transducer which transform biological signal into another signal that can more easily measure. I.e. amplified signal e.g. optical transducer, electrochemical transducer, calorimetric transducer etc.
c) Signal Processor: It is used to display the result in user friendly manner.

Most of the enzymes used in biosensor are Oxidizes but there are certain limitations as their activity is susceptible to pH, temperature, ionic strength etc. The enzyme sensor array’s application area was tested from meat to fish products, dairy products, fermented foods and then compared with the conventional LC (Liquid Chromatography) (Lange and Wittman 2002). In food analysis, for the simultaneous determination of the three biogenic amines putrescine, histamine and tyramine is prevalent. The enzyme sensor’s lower detection limits were 5 mg/kg for putrescine and 10 mg/kg for histamine and tyramine with a linear range up to 100 mg/kg for putrescine and 200 mg/kg for histamine and tyramine (Otles and Yalcin, 2012). Thus, biogenic amines are an indicator of food deterioration and only an indirect indicator of food freshness in meat (Rokka et al., 2004) and for monitoring fish spoilage, Pacquit et al. (2007) developed a colorimetric dye-based sensor that detects the presence of total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), a product of
Kudler Fine Foods Case Study
196 Words | 1 PagesThere are events and forces that might prevent reliance on auditing through the computer for Kudler Fine Foods. The auditor needs to review the internal controls of the organization to ensure that they are working correctly. If the internal controls in place are not working efficiently then the reliance on auditing through computer will decrease. The physical and environmental security of computer is also important. Many computer systems require strict environmental controls to function properly (Hunton, Bryant, &Bagranoff, 2004, p.220).

Peroxidase Lab
224 Words | 1 PagesThe purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of varying the concentration of peroxidase on rate of reaction, as well as, the varying temperature and pH levels. Enzymes are proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions that work by reducing the activation energy for each reaction, causing an increase to the rate of the reaction. One class of enzymes are known as peroxidase. Peroxidase catalyze the oxidation of a particular substrate by hydrogen peroxide. Meaning that it eliminates H2O2 in order to prevent damage to the cells and tissues (Department of Biology University of Tampa 74).
Enzyme Temperature Lab Report
1654 Words | 7 PagesI) Introduction This lab was designed to test what effect multiple temperatures would have on the activity of an enzyme. It’s scientifically known that there’s a positive correlation between temperature and an enzyme’s rate of reaction. In other words, as temperature increases, so too does the rate of reaction of an enzyme.
Pure Food And Drug Act Of 1906
1575 Words | 7 PagesFood Safety In today’s society we have progressed tremendously when it comes to safety in the food industry. We are no longer in the times where food places are allowed to serve food in filthy conditions. There are a large number of acts that have been passed in order to ensure the wellbeing of the public. Some of the stepping stone acts being the Meat Inspection Act and Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906.

Bio Chem: Lab Report Of Amylase In Enzyme
916 Words | 4 PagesBio Chem lab Report 04 Enzyme Biochemistry Group Member: Chan Man Jeun Duncan (16002621) Law Sze Man (16000478) Introduction Enzyme is a protein base structure substance in our body. It works at a biocatalyst that will catalyzing the chemical reaction, which helps to speed up the chemical reaction. Enzyme could only function in specific shape, and the shape of enzyme is depending on the environment, therefore it is hard for an enzyme to function well in an extreme environment. The aim of this experiment is to see can the enzyme functions normally in different environment(pH, temperature and salt concentration) via using starch solution, amylase from saliva, 0.5M HCl solution, 0.5M NaOH solution and NaCl solution, and using iodine solution
