Food Chemistry and Biochemistry

FCH-DCO_PCHBAcad. year: 2023/2024

The course covers the advanced chapters of majortiních food ingredients, such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and structural components, as well as in the field of food ingredients minorintích - bitter, vitamins, colorants, flavorings, flavoring substances and additive. Emphasis will be placed, however, in addition to the structure and function mainly on the study of reactions and changes, which indicated minor components subject to the processing of raw materials and semi-finished products. They will be studied also mechanisms reaction between food components themselves. They observed changes occurring in foodstuffs during storage under various conditions, the reaction initiated by exogenous factors and options reduce or eliminate detrimental changes.
