Contents	Chemistry of food constituents. Composition of some animal and vegetable foods. Alteration and adulteration phenomena of food matrices.
Reference texts	CHIMICA DEGLI ALIMENTI Cappelli e Vannucchi (Zanichelli Editore). Updated educational material available on the Unistudium platform. Lecture notes.
Educational objectives	The aim of the course is to provide adequate knowledge regarding: chemical structure and properties of food constituents; mechanisms of the main reactions of alteration. The main acquired knowledge will be: food composition; structure of food constituents; modification of food. The student will be able to apply the acquired knowledge, with the following competences (ability): assess food quality, based on the data of the composition and on eventual alteration and adulteration.
Prerequisites	For an optimal understanding of the contents and to achieve the objectives of the course, the student must have general knowledge on: inorganic chemistry; organic chemistry; biochemistry.
Teaching methods	The course is based on lectures face-to-face (20 hours) on all topics of the course. The lessons take place at Polo Unico Sant'Andrea delle Fratte.
Other information	Course attendance is strongly recommended. For information on student support services (disability and/or DSA): http://www.unipg.it/disabilita-e-dsa
Learning verification modality	The written test is based on: - Close questions (item/questions or multiple choice tests), the number and the value of which is directly proportional to CFU of every integrated module and to CFU total number of discipline - One open question for every discipline module. The open question, according to the didactic method used in the modules, can be replaced by different examination mode: team work, plenary presentation of individual research program, solution to special cases or exercises, project elaboration. Essential conditions to pass examination and to obtain its certification. - First condition. Total result (the sum of close and open questions marks) must be at least 18/30. - Second condition. For every module: A) certain minimal percentage of right answers (on the total number of close questions) must be achieved; B) the evaluation for open question answer or for any other different examination mode must be positive. In case the student reaches the first condition but do not achieve one (A or B) of the second condition, he can do the oral exam to recover the insufficient part. If the student fails the oral exam, he fails the exam of discipline. For DSA information: http://www.unipg.it/disabilita-e-dsa
Extended program	Foods, constituents and nutrients. Food labeling. Food frauds. Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids: generalities, classification, main food sources. Dietary fiber: definition, chemical composition, and importance in diet. Modifications, desired and not, of food carbohydrates, proteins and carbohydrates: substrates, mechanism, prevention. Composition, preparation, conservation, modification of some foods: milk and dairy products, fat and oil, cereals. Concepts of food additive, antioxidants, functional foods, novel foods.

Moreover – Dublin descriptors (knowledge and understanding have demonstrated knowledge and understanding in the fields of food safety and official control, and that provides a basis or opportunity for originality in developing and/or applying ideas in the field of food safety and official control; applying knowledge and understanding can apply their knowledge and understanding, and problem solving abilities in new or unfamiliar environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to official control; making judgements have the ability to integrate knowledge and handle complexity, and formulate judgements with incomplete or limited information, but that include reflecting on social and ethical responsibilities linked to the application of their knowledge and judgements; communication skills can communicate their conclusions, and the knowledge and rationale underpinning these, to specialist and nonspecialist audiences clearly and unambiguously; learning skills) have the learning skills to allow them to continue to study in a manner that may be largely self-directed or autonomous

If the student fails the oral exam, he fails the exam of discipline.
Extended program	Provide students with scientific and technical knowledge for understanding the major processes of transformation of the agro-food industry. Will learn more in food technology, production processes, technologies, packaging and distribution of products, process parameters and their unit operations, methods of representation in the form of process flow diagrams (flow-sheet, flow chart). Some information will be also given on the disposal of waste- and by- products.
