    C. Decease Causing Micro Organisms

    Uploaded by

    mohamed.mauroof
    This document discusses microorganisms and macroorganisms that can spoil or contaminate food. Certain microorganisms like bacteria and fungi can cause food to sour, grow mold, or spoil if not properly stored. Pathogenic microorganisms can cause illness or even death without changing the food's appearance, making them difficult to detect. Maintaining good hygiene and proper food storage conditions like refrigeration can reduce the risk of microbial growth. The document also lists common macroorganisms like rodents, insects, and parasites that live near humans and can damage buildings, food ingredients, and pose health risks.

    Some micro organisms can harm food and make sure that

    the food goes bad. They can cause for example milk to get
    sour. Also food can get a mold by certain fungus. Most of the
    times this is with fruits and vegetables, but also meats can
    get a mold. The natural yeast in juice can start to develop if
    not kept at the right temperature, and so the juice will get
    spoiled.

    c. Decease causing micro organisms

    These (pathogens) can be in our food without us knowing it.


    Sometimes they do not cause the food to smell bad, or
    change color, or taste bad.

    So these are very difficult to find in the food. However, they


    can cause illness, and also severe illness and in some cases
    even death.

    To pay a lot of attention to hygiene while working with food


    is therefore very important and it reduces the risk to get a
    micro organism development in the food.
    A very pleasant environment helps micro organisms to
    develop, so if we make sure that we not keep a pleasant
    environment for them (for example by storing food cold,
    frozen or dry and dark) we reduce the chance that micro
    organisms can develop.

    2. The macro organisms

    At the places where humans live, also animals live because


    the environment is pleasant. They find in and around the
    houses food, warmth and a good humidity.

    The macro organisms that we will discuss in this chapter are:

    - Rodents (rats and mice, etc.)


    - Insects (cockroaches, spiders, flies, mosquitoes, ants,
    etc.)
    - Parasites (lint worm, haring worm or swordfish worm,
    etc.)

    The damage they could cause are:

    - Danger for the general health conditions


    - Damage to buildings and houses
    - Damage to ingredients
    - Damage to textile, uniform or furniture
    - Damage to flora and fauna (plants and gardens)

    Danger for the health
