Introduction to the Department of Food Production Science

ABOUTAbout the Department of Food Production Science

Since ancient times in Japan, the bounty of the sea has been at the heart of food, and excellent processing and preservation methods based on experience have been handed down.In recent years, these have been scientifically verified, and technologies to further improve them and new technologies have been developed.Society demands higher reliability and safety in foods, and it is necessary to take measures based on scientific evidence.

In this department, you will learn theories and techniques for producing safe food that is free from dangers such as food poisoning, by drawing out nutrients, deliciousness, and functions useful for health.In order to scientifically evaluate food, an approach from a chemical and microbiological point of view is necessary.In addition, the food manufacturing process requires an approach from a physical and engineering perspective.By acquiring such broad knowledge and understanding, we develop human resources who can comprehensively understand the process from raw materials to product manufacturing and consumption.

CLASSExamples of lessons learned in four years

Introduction to research and lectures

food microbiology experiments
By learning the inspection methods for the main food poisoning bacteria that cause hazards in various foods and understanding their characteristics, we will raise awareness of food safety.You will also learn specific methods for extending the shelf life of food and understand how to maintain quality.

Food engineering experiment
Various operations such as freezing, heating, drying, and separation are necessary to process, cook, and preserve food.In this experiment, along with understanding these basic principles, you will learn how to measure physical quantities such as temperature, pressure, and flow rate, and how to detect physical properties and characteristics.

RESEARCH研究 紹 介

food hygiene chemistry

Food safety from the perspective of food allergies
We are surrounded by a variety of foods, and since we eat them every day, we must be careful about their safety and quality. In particular, food allergies can cause serious health damage, so research into their causative substances (allergens) and mechanisms of action is extremely important for food hygiene.
In our laboratory, we identify allergens in seafood and their parasites (Anisakis), develop new systems to predict the allergenicity of ingredients contained in food raw materials, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, and further research on human brain function. We are conducting research on squid-derived neurotransmitters and improving the taste of seafood, with a view to making improvements. We are engaged in a wide range of research using the latest technology so that we can provide you with food that is safe, high quality, and contributes to the happiness of humankind.

food processing science

Research on high value-added marine food processing technology
Common food processing steps include collecting raw materials, washing, mixing, heating, drying, packaging, and storing. In these manufacturing processes, the quality of food is affected not only by the food ingredients, but also by processing and storage techniques and accompanying changes in ingredients. In our laboratory, we develop food design technology and manufacturing processes to embody safe and high value-added food (mainly seafood) manufacturing processes from chemical, physical, and biochemical perspectives. We aim to establish a safety evaluation system for Specifically, we will develop high-precision quantitative analysis of safety-related processes from raw materials to consumption, development of low-temperature utilization technology for seafood products, effective use of unused food resources, and high-value-added seafood processing technology. We are conducting comprehensive research on the development of

Food thermal manipulation engineering

Prediction and control of food thermal processing
Heat treatment is one of the most widely used techniques to extend the shelf life of foods, killing microorganisms and improving the flavor, texture, appearance, and digestibility of foods. On the other hand, excessive heating can lead to loss of nutritional components and an undesirable texture, leading to a decline in quality. Therefore, a heat treatment method that can achieve uniform temperature distribution in a short time and has a low environmental impact is desired. One technology that can achieve this is electrical heating. Electrical heating utilizes the Joule heat generated by passing an electric current directly through food, and is expected to be applied to a variety of food processing applications. Furthermore, it is important to use computer simulation to predict temperature changes during heat treatment, calculate the degree of microbial killing, quality changes, etc., and derive optimal heat treatment conditions.

food conservation chemistry

Investigating the health functions and roles of lipids and fat-soluble compounds in food in the body
There are many different types of lipids (oils), and they play an important role in maintaining the health of the body. We use a method called "organic synthesis" to create new lipids and highly functional lipids, and evaluate their health functions using animals and cells such as mice and rats. In addition to health functions, we also conduct experiments to track how fats are taken into the body and what functions they perform in the body. In this way, we are conducting research that uses lipids and fat-soluble compounds in foods to help maintain and improve people's health.
