752-2307-00LNutritional Aspects of Food Composition and Processing Information 3 KP2VB. E. Baumer, J. M. Sych
KurzbeschreibungLecture type course with an interdisciplinary approach for the evaluation of nutritional aspects of changes in food composition due to processing.
LernzielStudents should be able to
- describe and compare the major concepts /criteria used for the evaluation of the nutritional quality of food
- apply these criteria when assessing the effects of selected processing technologies on nutritional quality.
- evaluate recent formulation strategies aimed to achieve additional physiological benefits for targeted population groups (i.e. functional foods).
InhaltThe course gives inputs on compositional changes in food due to processing (with focus on thermal/chilling, enzymatic, chemical, separation and emerging technologies) or new formulation strategies. New approaches for evaluating these changes (e.g. nutritional profiles) and how these are communicated to consumers are also discussed.
SkriptThere is no script. Powerpoint presentations and relevant scientific articles will be available on-line for students. A selection of recommended readings will be given at the beginning of the course.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesThe course is open to Master and MAS students in food and science and nutrition or related. Basic knowledge of food chemistry and nutrition is expected, as well as an understanding of food processing.
