No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1989–90 to 1994–95 (before that, 1972–73 to 1981–82 used the number for Mycology and Mycology . and Mycology 2); 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. (Formerly BIOL 344)
As printed in the 1989–90 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
