FOOD5031M | Functionality and Interactions of Components in Food Product |
Module replaces
FOOD 3040This module is not approved as a discovery module
Objectives
On completion of this module students should:(i) have an advanced understanding of the interactions of food components and the effects of processing in relation to the texture, colour, flavour and quality of a range of food products from farm to fork;
(ii) have presented a lecture on the interactions of food components and the effects of processing of a specific food commodity using the knowledge gained throughout the course.
(iii) have performed critical analysis via observation of ingredients functionalities in specific food commodities and how altering these ingredients may affect the final product attributes.
Learning outcomes
On completion of this module students should:
(i) be able to understand how the effect of changing the ingredient or processing may affect the product quality
(ii) have an advanced understanding of the interactions of food components and the effects of processing in relation to the texture, colour, flavour and quality of a range of food products from farm to fork;
(iii) have acted autonomously in planning and implementing a lecture on a given food commodity;
(iv) have applied the knowledge gained from previous modules studied to a given food commodity to enable them to explain the interactions of the food components and to describe the effects processing has on the quality of the final product.
Skills outcomes
Students will:
- be able to exercise critical judgement in choosing the appropriate literature to summarise in a lecture;
- be confident in relaying scientific information to their peers;
- be able to write a concise lab report about the effect of ingredients and their alternatives to the final products.
Syllabus
This module will investigate specific interactions between different classes of food constituents and the chemical and biochemical changes in the production and processing of various food products. How these interactions affect structure, quality and stability of food products. To investigate how changes in formulation affect structure, quality and stability of food products.
