FOOD TECHNOLOGIES LAB

The Module, through the application of laboratory practical tasks, is aimed to give the tools, using knowledge acquired in the different disciplines, useful for food production. In particular, the student, through the modification of each ingredient, the understanding of the role and interactions with other ingredients, will be asked to assess both the changes in the properties of the intermediate food product and the quality of finished products.
