Topic: Pasteurization



  
 Chapter 5: Louis Pasteur (1822-1895)
While Pasteur thus laid the foundation for the germ theory of disease, validation of the theory awaited the test of clinical application soon to be undertaken by the British surgeon, Joseph Lister.
Pasteur's experiments proved conclusively that fermentation is caused by microorganisms.
Pasteur's seminal contributions are by no means limited to germ theory and spontaneous generation.

 A SUMMARY OF WATER PASTEURIZATION TECHNIQUES
The purpose of this document is not to say that pasteurization is the best way of providing drinking water or to say that one pasteurization technique is necessarily better than other.

 Pasteurization
Pasteur immediately devoted himself to research on the process of fermentation.
This faculty had been set up partly to serve as a means of applying science to the practical problems of the industries of the region, especially the manufacture of alcoholic beverages.
Pasteur later saved many lives when he developed vaccines for rabies and other deadly illnesses.

 CIDRAP >> Under farm bill, 'pasteurization' could replace 'irradiation' on food labels
Instead, it defines pasteurization as any safe treatment that is described as pasteurization under existing federal laws or that reduces pathogenic microbe levels in food to the same degree as pasteurization does and that is effective for the shelf life of the food.
The equivalence of the process to pasteurization must be "demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Secretary of HHS [Health and Human Services]," according to the clause.
They're not using radioactive isotopes to pasteurize this meat, so to use the term 'irradiation' is more misleading than to use any other term." Food irradiation as currently done often involves exposure to an electron beam rather than to a radioisotope such as cobalt 60.
