FSSAI – Merck Opens C-MAT Center for Microbiological Analysis Training Written on 05/01/2019 FSSAI – Merck Opens C-MAT Center for Microbiological Analysis Training In a recent collaboartion, FSSAI & Merck have joined hands to open C-MAT – Center for Microbiological Analysis Training with an aim to enhance skill developments pertaining to the Food Safety Industry. Merck has partnered with FSSAI – Food Safety and Standards Authority of India to set up a fully operational microbiological testing lab – the Center for Microbiological Analysis Training (C-MAT) equipped with the latest instruments & technologies. The prime motto behind this initiative is to provide top-notch training in microbiological testing to food safety scientists & officials belonging to govt labs and also to FSSAI certified private lab officials. Udit Batra, CEO, Life Science and member of the Merck Executive Board said that the awareness about the importance of Food Safety has grown immensely i

Beer production

Brewing  is the production of  beer  by steeping  a  starch  source (commonly cereal  grains, the most popular of which is  barley ) [1]  in water and  fermenting  the resulting sweet liquid with  yeast . It may be done in a  brewery  by a commercial brewer, at home by a  homebrewer , or by a variety of traditional methods such as communally by the  indigenous peoples in Brazil  when making  cauim . [2]  Brewing has taken place since around the 6th millennium BC, and archaeological evidence suggests that emerging civilizations including  ancient Egypt [3] and  Mesopotamia  brewed beer. [4]  Since the nineteenth century the  brewing industry  has been part of most western economies. The basic ingredients of beer are water and a  fermentable  starch source such as  malted barley . Most beer is fermented with a  brewer's yeast  and flavoured with  hops . [5]  Less widely used starch sources include  millet ,  sorghum and  cassava . [6]  Secondary sources ( adjuncts ), such as

Difference Between Bacteria and Fungi, a short notes

Written by vinod kushwaha.Msc in microbiology Bacteria and Fungi come under different categories; the former one is the  prokaryotic cell  while the latter one is  Eukaryotic cells . Apart from this, there are many differences between them like bacteria need a host to live, and they can be  autotrophs  as well as heterotrophs , whereas fungi grow their own and are  heterotrophs which depend on others for their food. Bacteria do not have nuclear membrane enclosing nucleus, while Fungi (eukaryotes) have well- defined nucleus surrounded by the nuclear membrane. Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes are the two major umbrellas of classifications under which all the organisms are kept. Prokaryotes are the most primitive type of microorganisms, which are single-celled and lack many organelles, while Eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes only but they are multicellular and contains all organelles with the specific function. Bacteria and Fungi shares some similarities also  like, like they

Ethanol fermentation

Ethanol fermentation Read in another language Watch this page Edit In ethanol fermentation, (1) one glucose molecule breaks down into two pyruvates. The energy from this exothermic reaction is used to bind the inorganic phosphates to ADP and convert NAD+ to NADH. (2) The two pyruvates are then broken down into two acetaldehydes and give off two CO2 as a by-product. (3) The two acetaldehydes are then converted to two ethanol by using the H- ions from NADH, converting NADH back intoNAD+.                     Ethanol fermentation , also called alcoholic fermentation , is a   biological process   which converts   sugars   such as glucose ,   fructose , and   sucrose   into cellular energy , producing   ethanol   and carbon dioxide   as by-products. Because yeasts   perform this conversion in the absence of   oxygen , alcoholic fermentation   is considered an   anaerobic process. It also takes place in some species of fish (including   goldfish   and carp ) where (
