PRINCIPLES OF FOOD PRESERVATION
1. Prevention or delay of microbial
decomposition
2. Killing the microorganisms
3. Prevention or delay of self – decomposition
of the food
4. Prevention of damage by insects, animals,
mechanical causes etc.
1.Prevention or delay of microbial decomposition
a). Keeping out microorganisms (Asepsis)-
state of being free from spoilage microbes –
bacteria , fungi etc.
Egs : Shells of nuts, almonds, walnuts ,egg etc.
Skins of fruits – banana, orange
Packaging – prevents the entry of microbes
Use of clean vessels, hygienic surroundings –
help to prevent spoilage of milk during
collection and processing by keeping out
microorganisms .
b). By removal of microorganisms by Filtration
• For the preservation of clear liquids – water,
fruit juices, beer, soft drinks etc.
• Use “ bacteria proof” filters made up of
asbestos pad, unglazed porcelain – candle
filters.
Microbes can also be removed by
Centrifugation(Treatment of drinking water)
Washing raw foods
Trimming away spoiled portions of food.
c). Hindering the growth and activity of
microorganisms
i) Use of low temperature
• Preservation of food at refrigeration
temperatures – increases the lag phase of
many microorganisms and thus prevents
their growth in foods.
ii) Drying
• Sun drying
• Mechanical drying
• Binding the moisture with addition of sugar
or salt and making it unavailable to microbes.
Water content of food is reduced- below a
certain level - microorganisms can not grow.
iii) Maintenance of anaerobic conditions
prevent the growth of aerobes.
e.g. Canned food – canned pea, mush rooms,
baby corns etc.
Fruit juices in airtight containers – Care
should be taken to kill or inactivate anaerobic
bacteria (Clostridium botulinum ) and their
spores.
iv) Use of chemical preservatives.
• Sodium benzoate
• Potassium metabisulphite
• Sorbic acid
• Calcium propionate
• Antioxidants –prevent rancidity
(development of off-flavours in edible oils)
e.g. Butylated Hydroxy Anisole (BHA),
Butylated Hydroxy Toluene (BHT), Lecithin.
2. Killing the Microorganisms.
a). Heat - Exposing food to high temperature
kills most of microorganisms .
b). Irradiation - should be used with caution
• Use of UV lamps to sterilize knives in bakeries
• α, ß and Ƴ rays for preservation of vegetables
, fruits, sea foods etc.
3. Prevention or delay of self – decomposition
of food
a). Blanching
• Mild heat treatment given to vegetables by
dipping them in hot water or exposing them
to steam for a few minutes.
• Heat inactivates the enzymes present in the
vegetables and prevent self decomposition of
food.
b). Prevention of Oxidation
• Rancidity ( development of unpleasant
odour ) of fats and oils by oxidation –
prevented by antioxidants.
Eg. Butylated Hydroxy Anisole (BHA)
Butylated Hydroxy Toluene (BHT)

Keeping out microorganisms (Asepsis)- state of being free from spoilage microbes – bacteria , fungi etc. Egs : Shells of nuts, almonds, walnuts ,egg etc. Skins of fruits – banana, orange Packaging – prevents the entry of microbes Use of clean vessels, hygienic surroundings – help to prevent spoilage of milk during collection and processing by keeping out microorganisms .
  • 4. b). By removal of microorganisms by Filtration • For the preservation of clear liquids – water, fruit juices, beer, soft drinks etc. • Use “ bacteria proof” filters made up of asbestos pad, unglazed porcelain – candle filters.
  • 5. Microbes can also be removed by Centrifugation(Treatment of drinking water) Washing raw foods Trimming away spoiled portions of food.
  • 6. c). Hindering the growth and activity of microorganisms i) Use of low temperature • Preservation of food at refrigeration temperatures – increases the lag phase of many microorganisms and thus prevents their growth in foods.
  • 7. ii) Drying • Sun drying • Mechanical drying • Binding the moisture with addition of sugar or salt and making it unavailable to microbes. Water content of food is reduced- below a certain level - microorganisms can not grow.
  • 8. iii) Maintenance of anaerobic conditions prevent the growth of aerobes. e.g. Canned food – canned pea, mush rooms, baby corns etc. Fruit juices in airtight containers – Care should be taken to kill or inactivate anaerobic bacteria (Clostridium botulinum ) and their spores.
  • 9. iv) Use of chemical preservatives. • Sodium benzoate • Potassium metabisulphite • Sorbic acid • Calcium propionate • Antioxidants –prevent rancidity (development of off-flavours in edible oils) e.g. Butylated Hydroxy Anisole (BHA), Butylated Hydroxy Toluene (BHT), Lecithin.
  • 10. 2. Killing the Microorganisms. a). Heat - Exposing food to high temperature kills most of microorganisms . b). Irradiation - should be used with caution • Use of UV lamps to sterilize knives in bakeries • α, ß and Ƴ rays for preservation of vegetables , fruits, sea foods etc.
  • 11. 3. Prevention or delay of self – decomposition of food a). Blanching • Mild heat treatment given to vegetables by dipping them in hot water or exposing them to steam for a few minutes. • Heat inactivates the enzymes present in the vegetables and prevent self decomposition of food.
  • 12. b). Prevention of Oxidation • Rancidity ( development of unpleasant odour ) of fats and oils by oxidation – prevented by antioxidants. Eg. Butylated Hydroxy Anisole (BHA) Butylated Hydroxy Toluene (BHT)
