Food Product Dating and Storage TimesArmstrong Florian, Traci L., Misner, Scottie 06 1900 (has links)
Revised 06/2015; Originally published: 07/2006 / 3 pp. / Nutritious food is an important part of individual health and wellness. One way to ensure food is nutritious is to check the date on packages. The date is a guideline to help consumers use food when it is at its peak quality or before spoilage begins. Proper storage conditions and times are also essential in keeping healthy food safe to consume.

Sample preparation methods and molecular based detection for the rapid isolation and identification of Listeria monocytogenes in food samples.Rip, Diane. January 2006 (has links)
<p>Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive bacterium responsible for listeriosis, a food-borne disease, which may result in severe illness and possible death. The importance of L. monocytogenes as a food-borne pathogen has been recognized since the 1980's when a correlation between the cunsumption of contaminated foodstuffs and human listeriosis outbreaks was observed. Listeriosis occurs with the ingestion of contaminated foods. The aim of this study involved developing DNA based methods to aid the food industry for the fast detection of L. monocytogenes in food products. Therefore assays were developed in such a way that they will have potential applications in the food idustry.</p>

An investigation of rodents' use of learned caloric information in diet selection and foragingArbour, Katherine Johanna January 1987 (has links)
When given a choice between two foods of equal caloric value but different flavors, rats show a robust preference for that food whose flavor was previously associated with a higher calorie food. This finding suggests that rodents may identify food quality by sensory signals such as taste. The first portion of this thesis explores this flavor-calorie conditioning effect in other rodents, namely hamsters and gerbils. When hamsters were tested in the same paradigm as rats, the conditioning effect was not observed. This discrepancy may have resulted from the hamsters' ability to store food mash in their cheekpouches. Accordingly, hamsters were next presented with liquid diets which could not be cheekpouched. The conditioning effect was observed when different flavors were associated with different quality liquid diets. However, the effect was less robust than that discovered for rats. A second species, gerbils, did show robust conditioning effects. Thus, unlike rats and gerbils who show a robust flavor-calorie conditioning effect, hamsters are less likely to identify food quality by using taste cues.
Once conditioned to detect caloric density by using flavor cues, hamsters and gerbils were placed on an 8-arm radial maze that consisted of four arms baited with high-calorie liquid and four arms baited with low-calorie liquid. The purpose of this second, part of the thesis research was to investigate the rodents' preference for food locations that contained food of varying qualities. Both species were expected to visit and drink first from the arm locations containing the higher calorie liquid. Although hamsters did not visit more high-calorie arm locations, they did drink from these arms more often. When visiting arm locations, hamsters appeared to use a circling strategy that began in the same arm each trial and consisted of visits to consecutive arms. Gerbils neither visited nor drank more often from the high-calorie arm locations. Gerbils also did not appear to use a circling strategy. Thus, when foraging on an 8-arm radial maze for food of varying quality, hamsters' use of a circling strategy prohibited them from first visiting high-calorie arms but not from preferentially drinking from these locations. Unlike hamsters, gerbils did not adopt a strategy to collect food rewards and were not selective about the food reward that was consumed.
The foraging strategies of hamsters was further explored in the third part of the thesis. Hamsters were allowed to forage on an equally-baited 17-arm radial maze. Each arm location was baited with a sunflower seed. Once again, hamsters visited arm locations by using a circling strategy which consisted of visits to consecutive arms. However, on the larger maze hamsters did not begin each trial in the same arm location. In addition, hamsters that were placed on the same maze with 4 of the 17 baited arms blocked, given 13 arm location choices, removed from the maze while the blocks were also removed, and placed back on the maze to select 4 additional arm locations, did not preferentially select the previously blocked arms. Thus, hamsters whose response algorithm was disrupted did not show a memory-based strategy for collecting seeds from the maze.
The major conclusions from this research are that 1.) Hamsters can learn to associate caloric density and flavor cues, but the learned effect is easily extinguished. 2.) This dietary information may be used when deciding what to eat but not where to forage. 3.) Hamsters appear to be harvesters who visit all foraging locations by adopting a response strategy. 4.) Gerbils can also learn to associate caloric density and flavor, and the learned effect is robust. 5.) Gerbils do not appear to use this information when deciding which foods to eat or where to forage. It will be interesting for future studies to see if rats use flavor-calorie information in foraging settings. / Arts, Faculty of / Psychology, Department of / Graduate

Architecture for a New Food System- An Investigation into Healthy Eating through ArchitectureGasperetti, Emily M. 01 January 2013 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis seeks to explore the impact that architecture can have on peoples' relationship with food. The industrialization of American society over the past two centuries has distance people from the source of their food; this distance has significantly contributed to an overall decreased in American health. The concept of this thesis is that architecture can have a positive impact on peoples' relationship with food and thereby help improve the health of a community.
I chose a site on the outskirts of Glens Falls, New York to locate my project, the Glens Falls Good Foods Collective. This site is ideal for bringing people and food together as a few miles to the West lays the city center, while abundant farmlands fan out toward the East. The Collective combines small-scale food processing facilities for farmers with a market place for consumers. Providing an environment in which these ever-distancing demographics can interact would help reduce the gap between people and food. The goal of this thesis is to design a building that fosters a meaningful and productive connection to food by bringing people closer to its source.
