Introducing Food Science authored by Robert L. Shewfelt, Alicia Orta- Ramirez and Andrew D.Clarke overviews the food issues, basic principles of food science, commercial food products and food labelling, packaging and recent trends in the principles of nutrition. The Section I emphasises on food safety issues, healthiest foods and on the foods we eat. Food safety on issues gives insights on foods in the news, unsafe foods, harmful microbes, hazards when food goes bad from the journalist point of view to the classrooms. Taking care of expiry date, preserving foods by different methods, the preservatives used are also emphasised. Governmental regulations of food safety and quality are also introduced.

Currently, we assist the emergence of sensors and low-cost information and communication technologies applied to food products, in order to improve food safety and quality along the food chain. Thus, it is relevant to implement predictive mathematical modeling tools in order to predict changes in the food quality and allow decision-making for expiration dates. To perform that, the Baranyi and Roberts model and the online tool Combined Database for Predictive Microbiology (Combase) were used to determine the factors that define the growth of different bacteria. These factors applied to the equation that determines the maximum specific growth rate establish a relation between the bacterial growth and the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that define the bacteria environment. These models may be programmed in low-cost wireless biochemical sensor devices applied to packaging and food supply chains to promote food safety and quality through real time traceability.
