Is bacteria contageous?
Actually, this is a very good question. When we look at the definition of pathogenic, we know that disease causing microorganism are pathogenic. Is E.Coli a disease causing microorganism? Well, E .coli can be found in uncooked foods, feces and in other unsanitary conditions. If the E.coli found in any of these conditions are consumed, we have a very serious problem. However, what about the E.coli that is inside of our large intestine helping synthesize vitamin K. These guys are not pathogenic. When answering questions of whether bacteria are pathogenic we must always consider the strain. The strain tells us the pathogenic status of the bacteria and will even tell us the degree of pathogenicity.
What do helpful bacteria do?
some bacteria secrete enzymes that help in the making of some foods. other kinds of bacteria help the human body big time, like the intestinal flora. These help the body break down cellulose, plus they provide an intestinal surface cover layer to prevent pathogenic bacteria from taking a place to settle down in the body, and finally they can secrete chemicals to fight some invading pathogenic microbes.
Bacteria generally grows well in foods that?
contain protein, are moist, and are neutral to slightly acidic.
Which of the following is one of the most common pathogenic microorganisms in US foods?
Staphylococcus Aureus
What is the role of bacteria in human life?
1.some bacteria cause diseases to human.Example is Salmonella typh i(typhoid fever) .2.The toxins of many pathogenic bacteria that are transmitted in foods can cause food poisoning when ingested. These include a toxin produced by Staphylococcus aureus, which causes a rapid, severe, but limited gastrointestinal distress, or the toxin of Clostridium botulinum, which is often lethal. Production of botulism toxin can occur in canned nonacidic foods that have been incompletely cooked before sealing.3.
Why is bacteria helpful in food?
foods contain enzymes and bacteria that help digest food and eliminate wastes.

What happens to Bacteria that make it into the digestive tract?
Bacteria begin to colonise the gut soon after birth, they play a key role in training the immune system to recognise pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria. Just having the bacteria there prevents other pathogenic species from taking up the same space and so prevents some diseases. They also produce some vitamins notably biotin and vitamin K and some ferment carbohydrate foods which we could not other wise digest turning them in to short chain fatty acids.
Which of the following foods is most likely to contain sulfites?
citric acid - no, wine.
Why do you cook some foods before you eat them?
because some foods like eggs and beats contain bacteria that can make you sick if they are not cooked properly.
What foods contain no iron?
Several foods contain no iron. Among them are sugar and candy, as well as straight oils and fats. Anything that has no protein in it likely contains no iron.
What is ptomane poisining commonly called?
This commonly referred to as poisoning from foods which contain putrefactive bacteria. Fish and vegetables are more likely to be infected than meat or fruit. Soup is less liable to contain the bacteria. Infection may result from contamination during preparation as well as from age and exposure. Symptoms appear in from two to 72 hours.
Which foods contain tryptophan?
There is a lot of foods that contain Tryptophan. Any meat and food from animals more than likely has Tryptophan in it. Also lots of plants such as seaweed and spinach have Tryptophan. Soy foods also contain Tryptophan. For a more complete list of foods that contain Tryptophan visit the website in the related links section below.
What foods are PHF?
Potentially hazadous food. Since these foods can harbor pathogenic microorganisms and permit their growth or the production of toxins, special care must be taken to keep them out of the temperature. Or pathogenic microoganisms will grow on the food.
Why are some foods heated to high temperatures before they are bottled?
High temperature is used to kill pathogens in the food. Common foods that are treated this way include milk and tinner/canned foods.
