Enhancing Bread’s Shelf Life Utilizing Oregano as a Natural Preservative

Introduction Background of research Mold is a microscopic fungus. Fungal growth can be used to produce various antibiotics, food (cheese, soy sauce etc.), enzymes, beverages, but they are also harmful to humans and other foods. Mold obtains energy from the living creatures they live in. This is why fungi cause decomposition of organic matter. The bread mold rapidly grows at a temperature of 15 ° C. to 30 ° C. Mildins in the bread are toxic and may cause infection when eaten.

Preservatives usually increase the acidity of bread, so formation slows down. Many commercial breads contain preservatives to extend the shelf life, but most organic breads, homemade breads and baked goods do not use preservatives. Salt can also be used as a preservative. If a piece of bread is generously marinated, mold growth will decrease. Judging from another preservative, bread containing preservatives will be molded faster than bread without preservatives.

Genetically modified foods do not rely on preservatives to keep the food freshness on the shelf, but rather extend the life of the food by improving the natural quality of the food itself. According to environmental nutrition, certain preservatives are associated with higher carcinogen, heart disease and allergy risk. Through processes known as "pharmaceuticals", certain proteins and vaccines, as well as other drugs, can be produced by use of genetic modification. This approach provides a cheaper way to improve personal health and may change the way that certain drugs are delivered to patients in the future. Imagine you can have dinner to take a tetanus booster instead of an arm - this is the future of this technology

Commercially available pet foods have relatively long shelf life. Processing is part of this reason, but preservatives are also used. Many high-grade pet food manufacturers use natural antioxidants instead of artificial preservatives. However, some pet foods and pet food ingredients are still stored by hand. There is clearly a lack of research on the effects of artificial preservatives on dogs, especially with respect to BHT and BHA. I do not know if the level of dog food will cause disease over time. According to several reports, EQ may cause dogs to be sick. Our knowledge gap means we can not eliminate long term toxicity. Dog food containing artificial preservatives should be treated with caution
