MICROORGANISMS AND PROCESSES FOR THE AGRI-FOOD INDUSTRYModule PROCESSI PER L'INDUSTRIA AGROALIMENTARE
Academic Year 2022/2023 - Teacher: Giuseppe MURATOREExpected Learning Outcomes
The course aims to provide students basic knowledge on the food production process together with an overview of the multiple applications of biotechnology in the "agri-food chain".
At the end of the course students will have developed
the necessary skills to understand the relationship between technological
conditions adopted for production and qualitative characteristics of food
products.
