Food Analysis

FCH-BA_ACP1Ak. rok: 2023/2024

Analytical methods in the control of food-processing industry. Methods of determination of natural components of foodstuffs. Essential nutrients (saccharides, nitrogen matters - proteins, lipides), minor nutritive components (vitamines, biogenic elements) and sensory and biological active substances (acids, natural dyes, flavoury compounds, tannins et al.). Methods of determination of extraneous substances (contaminants), substances adding to the foodstuffs (additives) and endogenic extraneous substances. Methods of foodstuffs sensory evaluation based on the evaluation of their organoleptic properties by sense organs.

Vstupní znalosti

Knowledge of both qualitative and quantitative analytical chemistry with a special focus on instrumental methods is supposed. The discipline furthermore exploits knowledge acquired particularly in biochemistry, microbiology and food technology. Theoretical principles already explained within the courses of physical, inorganic and organic chemistry and physics are exploited as well.

Učební cíle

The aim of the course is to sort, couple and develop the knowledge of analytical chemistry, biology, inorganic/organic chemistry and biochemistry focused on inspection practice of foodstuff industry and food analysis. The course covers analytical methods for determination of natural component of foodstuffs (saccharides, nitrogen compounds - proteins, lipids), minor nutritive components (vitamins, biogenic elements) and sensory and biological active substances (acids, natural dyes, flavor compound, tannins et al.). Methods of determination of extraneous substances - polluting matter of foodstuffs (contaminants), adding to the foodstuffs (additives) and endogenic extraneous substances. Methods of foodstuffs sensory evaluation are based on an evaluation of their organoleptic properties by sense organs.
After passing this course, the student acguires the knowledge of analysis of substances important for food production and safety. Modern methods of sample preparation and principles of analytical methods used in food analysis are also part of this overview. Methods are assessed with respect to their use and advantages and disadvantages for particular kinds of important analytes.
