When are preventive controls for allergens required Answer - when cross
contamination has been identified and when product contains allergen
ingredients

prevent contamination
list 4 extrinsic factors Answer - temperature, relative humidity, surface area of
product, oxygen in packaging environment
,give 2 examples of a facultative anaerobe Answer - Lactic acid bacteria, Staph
aureus
what steps can you use to control the growth curve Answer - prevent/reduce
level of microbes from being introduced into food, increase lag phase, decrease
log phase, destroy microbes that are present

, Hazard (definition - Preventive controls) Answer - Any biological, chemical,
(including radiological) physical property that is KNOWN OR FORSEEABLE, that
has the potential to cause illness or injury
Hazard (definition - FDA-HACCP) Answer - Any biological, chemical, or physical
property reasonably likely to occur, that may cause the food to be unsafe for
human consumption in the absence of control
Hazard (definition - USDA - HACCP) Answer - A food safety hazard, reasonably
likely to occur, for which a prudent processor would establish controls because
it has historically occurred or it's reasonably likely to occur.
monitoring (sanitation) definition Answer - to conduct a planned sequenced of
observations and measurements to assess whether control measures are
operating as intended
Preventive controls Answer - Risk Based, reasonably appropriate procedures,
that a knowledgeable person would employee to significantly minimize or
prevent that hazards identified in the hazard analysis that are consistent with
current established science principles
critical limit Answer - a maximum or minimum value to which a hazard (chem,
bio, physical) must be controlled at a CCP to prevent, eliminate, or reduce to an
acceptable level the occurrence of the identified food safety hazard
Critical Limit (codex) Answer - Criterion that separates acceptability from
unnacceptablity
Monitoring (CCP) definition Answer - a planned sequence of observations and
measurements to assess whether a CCP is under control to produce and
accurate record for future use of verification.
