27^th International Conference on Food Fraud & Safety June 19-20, 2023 Rome, Italy

Track 1: Food Fraud and Safety

Food fraud is the act of purposely altering, misrepresenting, substituting or tampering with any food product at any point along the farm–to–table food supply–chain. Fraud can occur in the raw material, in an ingredient, in the final product or in the food's packaging and Food safety is used as a scientific method/discipline describing handling, preparation, and storage of food in ways that prevent food-borne illness

Track 2: Food Safety & Quality Management Strategies and Technologies

This pandemic is slowing the global economy to a crawl but many of the largest economies are taking extra-ordinary measures to propel the crisis into rapid recovery. This considerable disaster shaking not only the world's economy but also the world's politics too which impacts throttling to the global economy and in a week or a couple of months the highly contagious disease has pushed the world to the brink of recession. As per Food Safety Specialist, Food and Agricultural Products Center, Ravi Jadeja in OSU marked his word as, "The risk associated with Novel COVID-19 in the food industry is low due to the regulatory and third-party audit Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) requirements that specifically address the exclusion of persons with any infectious diseases from the food-processing environment”.

Track 3: Food and Nutrition

Food and nutrition are the way that we get fuel, providing energy for our bodies. We need to replace nutrients in our bodies with a new supply every day. Water is an important component of nutrition. Fats, proteins, and carbohydrates are all required. Nutrition is the biochemical and physiological process by which an organism uses food to support its life.

Track 4: Food Security, Poverty and Sustainability

Food security is the measure of the availability of food and individuals' ability to access it. According to the United Nations' Committee on World Food Security, food security is defined as meaning that all people, at all times, have physical, social, and economic access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food that meets their food preferences and dietary needs for an active and healthy life. Improved food security governance based on sound, equitable, and sustainable food systems that benefit from modern information and sustainable and equitable agricultural technologies is essential for countries to meet the SDGs.

Track 5: Nutrition and Dietetics

Nutrition & Dietetics, a subdiscipline of Medicine, is the science that focuses on everything related to food and its effect on our health and overall wellbeing. Nutritionists and dietitians aim to improve people's health and help them make better dietary choices and advance the science of human nutrition and the professional practice of nutrition and dietetics.

Track 6: Food quality control & Management 

Quality control is used to manage the quality of processed food, testing the quality, and finding a buyer for that batch of food. Therefore, quality specifications should be written and agreed by the suppliers or sellers and any control issues need to be identified during the inspection process. Food QMS included five managerial functions: design (customer requirements), control (tolerances), improvement (reducing errors), assurance (evaluating and ensuring QMS performance), and quality policy/strategy (long-term food quality goals).

Track 7: Sports Nutrition

Sports nutrition focuses its studies on the type, as well as the quantity of fluids and food taken by an athlete. In addition, it deals with the consumption of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, supplements and organic substances that include carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Sports nutrition differs from regular nutrition because athletes require different amounts of nutrients compared to nonathletes. In order to perform optimally, you need to train hard and fuel your body appropriately.

Track 8: Functional Food and Innovation

A food given an additional function by adding new ingredients or more of existing ingredients is known as functional Food. An example of this type of fortification would be the historic addition of iodine to table salt, or Vitamin D to milk, done to resolve public health problems such as rickets. Fermented foods with live cultures are considered functional foods with probiotic benefits.

Track 9: Clinical Nutrition

Clinical nutrition is important for patients in healthcare to deal with sickness, injuries, surgery and for proper recovery. It helps in preventing malnutrition, restoring body tissue and boosting energy and immunity in the body. It defined as 'a discipline that deals with the prevention, diagnosis and management of nutritional and metabolic changes related to acute and chronic disease and conditions caused by a lack or excess of energy and nutrients'.

Track 10: Food Protection

Food production, as the name suggests, is all about preparing food, in which raw materials are converted into ready-made food products for human use either in the home or in the food processing industries. Its process comprises scientific approaches. Food production is classified into different categories: cultivation, harvesting, crop management, preservation, fermentation, crop production, cooking at restaurants, broiling, grilling, and baking.

Track 11: Food and Beverages 

The food and beverages industry is all companies involved in processing raw food materials, packaging, and distributing them. This includes fresh, prepared foods as well as packaged foods, and alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The food and beverage service industry are different from other industries in satisfying the needs of customers. It satisfies one of the most important physiological needs of the consumers, that is, hunger and thirst.

Track 12: Food Biochemistry and Microbiology

Microbiology and biochemistry have several differences in that microbiology is concerned with the characteristics of microscopic organisms while biochemistry is concerned with biochemical processes and reactions in all living organisms. Food microbiology comprehends the study of microorganisms that colonise, modify, and process, or contaminate and spoil food.

Track 13: PCR and Food Industry

The PCR method is not only for detecting viruses, it can also detect pathogens. In the food industry, testing for microbiological contamination is necessary. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a molecular method that is sensitive enough to detect infectious diseases, one of them is foodborne diseases.

Track 14: Food Waste Management, Public Health And Food Safety

Food waste management conserves Energy and resource. The process of growing crops, watering, transporting, and selling them consumes a lot of energy, and resources as well. When food waste is treated using a Biodigester 'CHUGG- food waste treatment system' eliminates the emission of Methane.

At least one individual from each foodservice establishment should be certified in food safety techniques. The original certificate is required to be maintained on site at the facility. It is the duty of the certified food supervisor to ensure that all employees have sufficient knowledge and are well trained in food safety as it recounts to their assigned duties which are framed by FDA (Food and drug administration).

Track 19: Food Toxicology

The business additionally has aggressive plans to grow 20% by 2020. Quick innovations, particularly fast discovery packs, are utilized for sustenance security testing in handled nourishments. Overall distinctive directions have been set for prepared to-eat (RTE) items security testing. Handled nourishment items incorporate solidified items, snacks, bundled items, and so forth. Listeria and different pathogens, for example, Clostridium might be found in last RTE items. The worldwide sustenance security testing has been ruled by meat and poultry items attributable to the way that most extreme number of diseases has been because of meat and poultry items. The Asia-Pacific market is required to become because of the expansion in agribusiness deliver exchange supply.

The expanded utilization of prepared sustenance, both in creating and created nations, is making a noteworthy open door for handled nourishment testing. Likewise, the defilement of the vast majority of the prepared nourishment happens from the handling apparatuses. Wasteful store network and sustenance tainting episodes are powering the development of the market.

Conclusion:-

In many countries, including some of the more populous ones, the relative prevalence of undernourishment will decline significantly with this approach. Fewer countries than at present will have high levels of undernourishment, none of them in the most populous class.
