The course aims to provide students with a comprehensive picture of the packaging standards (materials and techniques) and the distribution of food issues (with particular emphasis on the shelf-life). In addition, the module aims to illustrate, briefly, the quality requirements of the food, mandatory and regulated (with the legislative references), contractual and voluntary and introduce the hazard analysis and the drafting of the HACCP Plan.
Postharvest pathology module aims to provide students with basic knowledge about the issues arising in post-harvest contamination of the products and vegetable foodstuffs by fungi and bacteria and their diagnosis. This knowledge, combined with the basic elements on the possibilities of alterations of control, are aimed at the management of the defense of the products during storage and the control and prevention of contamination in the post-harvest mycotoxin that can affect the quality and quantity of plant .
