ready to eat foods which are ideal for multiplication of food poisoning organisms.
High-Risk Food
An organism that causes disease.
Pathogen
Any undesirable changes in food that makes food unacceptable for eating.
Spoilage
a poison produced by some bacteria, molds, and algae which can be found in seafoods.
Toxin
The process which bacteria multiply splitting into two.
Binary Fission
water that has been treated so that it is safe for drinking.
Potable
The protective form of some bacteria that help them to survive adverse condition, such as cooking and drying.
Spore
the transfer of bacteria from contaminated food to ready-to-eat food by DIRECT contact, dripping, indirect contact, or by vehicles such as hands cloth.
Cross Contamination
Food which is not prepared or treated immediately before eating in a way that would destroy pathogenic bacteria.
Ready-to-eatFood
A period of inactivity when bacteria do not multiply.
Dormant
Ordinary room temperature (strictly speaking, "ambient" means the surrounding temperature.)
Ambient Temperature
The temperature at the center of the thickest part of food (breast, rump, round, loin)
Inner Temperature
A form of heat treatment that kills pathogenic bacteria but not all spoilage bacteria.
Pasteurization
Food that is likely to spoil (go bad) rapidly.
Perishable
Any measure necessary to keep food at a safe temperature or to destroy pathogenic microorganisms
Time and Temperature Control
Calibration is the process of checking and adjusting equipment so that it measures accurately.
Hazard - Anything with potential to cause harm.
Food Hazard - Anything in food that could harm, cause illness, injury or discomfort.
Bacteria that came from Contaminated raw eggs, poultry, meat, unpasteurized milk or cheese, contaminated raw vegetables and fruits exposed to raw meat.
Salmonella
Bacteria that came from Salads, bakery products, sandwiches, milk and poultry.
Staphylococcus
Bacteria that came from Beef, poultry, and gravies.
Clostridium perfringens
Bacteria that came from home canned food with low acid comtents, improperly canned commerical food, fish, vacuum packed foods.
Clostridium Botulinum
Bacteria that came from rice and leftovers as well as sauces, soups and other prepared foods that sat out too long.
Bacillus cereus
Bacteria that came from raw and uncooked poultry, meat, unpasteurized milk, contaminated water
Campylobacter jejuni
Bacteria that came from raw ground beef, raw seed sprouts
Escherichia coli
Bacteria that came from ready to eat deli meats, refrigerated smoked seafoods, contaminated food or water or contact with infected person.
Listeria monocytogenes
Contaminated food or water, or contact with infected person, contaminated vegetables, salads, sandwiches
Shigella Bacillary dysentery
These micro-organism are smaller than bacteria and do not need food or moisture for their own survival.
Viruses
Parasites attach themselves to hosts and feed of them and may also cause damage to human tissue.
Food is likely to be in the danger zone if it is left at room temperature.
Keep cold foods cold, ideally below 5°C.
Keep hot foods hot, above 60°C.
Temperature and DangerZone is the temperature range (5°C to 60°C) most suitable for bacterial multiplication.
These are the symptomps of FoodAllergy : Tingiling sensation in mouth or throat, Itching in and around the mouth, Swelling, Difficulty breathing and swelling of tounge, Rash or hives, ETC.
Salmonella is an example of what bacteria?
Pathogenic
Broken glass or package materials, such as straps and sharp objects are example of what hazards?
Physical
Cleaning Chemicals used in food premises is an example of what hazard?
Chemical
Viruses, fungi such as molf and yeast that can spoil food are what kind of hazards?
