 ]]> 2018-04-30 16:26:22 UTC https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/256595730 5 Different bacteria, parasites, or viruses that are considered food borne illnesses. okech23 https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/256611454
  • Salmonella. 
    • Typhoid fever, food poisoning, gastroenteritis, enteric fever, and other illnesses are all types of Salmonella infection. Salmonella poisoning is often linked to contaminated water or foods, especially meat, poultry, and eggs.
    • Norovirus (Norwalk Virus)
    Noroviruses are the most common cause of acute gastroenteritis (infection of the stomach and intestines) 
    • Campylobacter.
    Most Campylobacter species can cause disease and can infect humans and other animals. People get the disease from eating food contaminated with Campylobacter species.
    • E. coli.
    E. coli are bacteria found in the environment, foods, and intestines of people and animals. E. coli are a large and diverse group of bacteria. 
    • Listeria.
    Listeria is the name of a bacteria found in soil and water and some animals, including poultry and cattle. It can be present in raw milk and foods made from raw milk. It can also live in food processing plants and contaminate a variety of processed meats.

This prevents bacteria from growing and keeps foods from spoiling.]]> 2018-05-02 18:40:09 UTC https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257403314 Cooling and chilling okech23 https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257403585 When it cools, no more bacteria can enter. The food is kept at a low temperature (4°C) so bacteria cannot reproduce (they're not killed). ]]> 2018-05-02 18:40:45 UTC https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257403585 Freezing okech23 https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404011 Freezing delays spoilage and keeps foods safe by preventing microorganisms from growing and by slowing down the enzyme activity that causes food to spoil. ]]> 2018-05-02 18:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404011 Adding salt or sugar okech23 https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404354 when foods are placed in a concentrated sugar solution water is drawn out of the cells of foods and microorganisms so that microorganisms can no longer survive. Sugar is also used with salt to preserve certain foods especially fish and meat.]]> 2018-05-02 18:42:22 UTC https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404354 Drying okech23 https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404603 removes enough moisture from the food so bacteria, yeast and molds cannot grow. ]]> 2018-05-02 18:42:51 UTC https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404603 Vinegar okech23 https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404777 Vinegar lowers the pH so the spoilage bacteria cannot grow and may even kill some of them.]]> 2018-05-02 18:43:15 UTC https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257404777 Outbreaks okech23 https://padlet.com/okech23/r02xdqlkby45/wish/257406876 E.
