Quality Control

The quality of a food product is determined by keeping in mind four types of characteristics that are indicated in the following:

Sensorial Quality – Aspect (look and color) – Taste (including odor) – Consistency (texture).

Sanitary Value (hygienic quality) - Amount of germs, bacteria, toxic substances (including unwanted residues), foreign bodies.

Nutritional Value (physiological quality) – Amount of nutrients – Digestibility – Utility – Diet aspect.

Utility Value (usage value) – Packaging – Deposit capacity – Conservation – Amount of proportion – Presentation.

Sensorial Quality
If you evaluate the final products, you might be able to find some defects that affect the aspect of the product, as well as the taste and texture.
