No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1982–83 to 1988–89 (before that, 1972–73 to 1975–76 used the number for Cytogenetics); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Food preservation, spoilage, poisoning and modern concepts in quality assurance programs are studied. The aim is to understand factors governing microbial changes in foods. Problem solving in the food industry is emphasized. Laboratory work will reflect current practices in quality control and testing.

As printed in the 1982–83 to 1988–89 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

Requirements, as last listed
