Article Name : | | ISOLATION OF HEAT RESISTANT FUNGI FROM CANNED FRUITS | Author Name : | | Sani Ibrahim , M.B.Anusha and P. Udhayaraja | Publisher : | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | Article Series No. : | | GRT-3792 | Article URL : | | | Author Profile View PDF In browser | Abstract : | | Increase in the consumption of canned fruit juice rather than the fruit itself raises alarmonto the safety of these canned juices as they are stored for longer period of time unlike the fruit and dormant if spores present could germinate and cause spoilage. Heat-resistant molds are characterized by the production of ascospores or similar structures with heat resistance, in some instances comparable to bacterial spores. This enables them to survive even when they are thermally processed. So the presence of heat resistant molds in canned fruits is worthy of studying.In this research , heat resistant moulds exist incanned fruit juice and they can withstand the heat treatment/ pasteurization done at processing plants. Their presence might be due to contamination right from the farm fields or the processing company. Heat resistant moulds in canned fruit juice can pose a set or health hazard in the body which includes Diarrhea and Stomachache. | Keywords : | | |
