Food Microbiology
Food microbiology is a branch of microbiology that focuses on the study of microorganisms in food and their effects on food quality, safety, and shelf-life. Microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts, viruses, and parasites can contaminate food at various stages of production, processing, distribution, and preparation. Understanding the behaviour of these microorganisms in food is crucial for ensuring food safety and preventing foodborne illnesses.
