Food Science & Technology Quiz (06/08/2021)

Q1. Pin Spot Molding Is Found In?

A. Cereals
B. Eggs
C. Milk
D. Fruits

ANSWER: B. Eggs

  • Explanation: Pin Spot Molding Is Found In Eggs. It Is A Fungal Spoilage With Small, Compact Mold Colonies Appear On The Shell And, In Most Cases, Just Inside The Shell In This Situation. The Hue Of Pin Dots Changes Depending On The Mold. Cladosporium, For Example, Causes Black Spots, While Sporotrichum Causes Pink Spots.

Q2. _______ Are Short DNA Or RNA Molecules That Can Bind With High Affinity And Specificity To Their Target Molecules Such As Drugs, Proteins, Toxins, Sugar, Antibiotics, And Bacteria.

A. Aptamers
B. Biosensors
C. Nucleic Acid Probe
D. Cell Line

 ANSWER – A. Aptamers

  • Explanation – Aptamers Are Single-Stranded DNA Or RNA (SsDNA Or SsRNA) Molecules That Can Bind To Proteins, Peptides, Carbohydrates, Tiny Compounds, Poisons, And Even Live Cells. When Compared To The Manufacturing Of Antibodies, The Synthesis Of Aptamers Has Several Advantages: It Is Quick, Inexpensive, Does Not Require The Use Of Animals, And Does Not Suffer From Batch-To-Batch Variation.

Q3. RODAC Is?

A. Reproduce Organism To Develop, Amplify, Control
B. Replicate Organism Diagnose And Control
C. Replicate Organism Detection And Counting
D. Reproduce Organism Detection And Counting

ANSWER – C. Replicate Organism Detection And Counting

  • Explanation– Rodac Plates (RODAC = Replicate Organism Detection And Counting) Are A Type Of Microbiological Control Plate That Can Be Used On Any Surface. With The Help Of These Plates, One May Check All Sorts Of Surfaces For Microbiological Contamination And The Hygienic Status Of The Surface In A Simple And Quick Manner.

Q4. ______ Test Is Performed By Adding Aliquots Of Food Suspensions To Small Quantities Of Lysate Preparation.

A. Radioimmunoassay
B. ELISA
C. Spray Gun
D. Limulus Amebocyte Lysate

ANSWER: D. Limulus Amebocyte Lysate

  • Explanation: The Limulus Amebocyte Lysate Test Is A Chemical Method For Detecting Endotoxin In Foods. The Lysate Protein Is The Most Endotoxin-Sensitive Material Known. The LAL Test Is Conducted By Incubating Aliquots Of Food Suspensions In Tiny Amounts Of Lysate Preparation For 1 Hour At 370°C. The Presence Of Endotoxin Causes The Lysate Material To Gel.

Q5. ______ Means Stiffening Of Protein Without Coagulation As The Temperature Is Below Coagulation Temperature.

A. Inspissation
B. Red Heat
C. Flaming
D. Tyndallization

ANSWER – A. Inspissation

  • Explanation – Inspissation Takes Place At A Temperature Of 75°C To 80°C. Because The Temperature Is Below The Coagulation Temperature, Inspissation Refers To The Stiffening Of Protein Without Coagulation. Heating Serum Or Egg-Containing Media For Three Days In A Row Sterilizes It. ‘Serum Inspissator’ Is Used For This.
