| Eksamen | Sluteksamen skriftlig og mundtlig eksamen Alle hjælpemidler tilladt Beskrivelse af eksamen: The examination will be an oral examination base on a synopsis of a subject within the curriculum given by the student. The subject can be based on a case story, will cover part of the curriculum, and will consist of a main theme with more detailed questions specified. One week prior to the actual exam all students will draw a subject for the examination. There will be no teaching planned on the course the last week. The student will prepare a synopsis, which will be presented orally on the last day of the course. A written synopsis (1-4 pages) can form part of the presentation. The presentation should take no more than 10 minutes. Following the presentation the examiner and internal censor will ask questions for 5-10 minutes. 13-skala, intern censur | ||||||||||||||||

| Kompetenceområder | |||||||||||||||||
| This mandatory course for the specialisation of MSc in Dairy Technology will give the student competence needed to understand and apply colloid chemistry, biochemistry, physics and technology to basic milk processing and milk production. Competences within basic science: Comprehension of the colloidal interactions governing stabilization and destabilization of milk and dairy products Competences within applied science: Knowledge of the major factors influencing milk production and quality. Application of the principles of colloid science to milk processing and milk ingredient functionality. Comprehension of how unit operations (chiefly heat treatment) affects milk constituents and the properties of milk. Knowledge of the health functionality of milk constituents. Knowledge of the economics involved in dairy production and processing. Competences within ethtics and values science: Awareness of the aminal ethics involved in milk production. | |||||||||||||||||
| Kursets målsætning | |||||||||||||||||
| The aim of the course is to give students a detailed knowledge of both theoretical and practical aspects of milk production, milk as a colloidal system and the basic unit operations of dairy processing. In addition, the functionality of food ingredients derived from milk will be covered. | |||||||||||||||||
| Kursusindhold | |||||||||||||||||
| The course primarily deals with the following subjects: Milk production: Influence of housing and feeding regime, Milking and its influence on raw milk quality, Organic production of milk, Feed quality and legislation, Animal ethics in dairy production, The physical chemistry of milk processing: Milk as a colloidal system (physical-chemical aspects), The effect of heat treatment on milk, Separation processes (chromatographic techniques, ion exchange), The effects of homogenization on milk, Rheology of milk and dairy products Functionality of milk constituent: Solubility, Interfacial properties, Gelation properties, Functional milk fat, Uses of lactose and minerals, Health functionality. | |||||||||||||||||
| Undervisningsform | |||||||||||||||||
| The course is based on a series of lectures and tutotials providing an overview of milk quality and processing. Laboratory practicals dealing with aspects of milk as a colloidal system and milk protein functionality are also included as well as excursions. Part of the module (3 days during one week) will take place at Danish Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Foulum, Jutland. | |||||||||||||||||
