Competences obtained within basic science: Evaluate knowledge about lipids obtained from original scientific literature. Competences within applied science: Make judgements about and report lipid related topics based on planning and conducting novel experimental scientific work. Competences within ethics & values: Reflect over the role of lipids in foods. | |||||||||||
| Kursets målsætning | |||||||||||
| The student should acquire a broad knowledge about lipids in foods and related selected topics in recent scientific research. The students should become familiar with reading and discussing scientific literature. The experimentally based project should give the student experience with defining lipid related scientific problems, and planning, executing and reporting scientific work that is carried out as a collaborative effort in a group of 3-4 students. | |||||||||||
| Kursusindhold | |||||||||||
| The course will cover a wide range of aspects related to lipids in foods such as: General aspects: Structures and classification, sources, biosynthesis, detection, isolation, physical and chemical properties, stability (oxidation and antioxidants), membranes, micelles, and properties of unsaponifiable lipids (steroids, carotenoids, and tocopherols). Food related aspects: Nutritional aspects, lipid technology, enzymatic reactions involving lipids, replacement of lipids with fat substitutes, modification of lipids, applications of lipids in foods including aspects related to emulsification, and lipids as precursors of aroma. | |||||||||||
| Undervisningsform | |||||||||||
| A broad overview of the topic "lipids" will be presented during a series of lectures, where examples of recent scientific advances will be presented. A project, where the students should focus on a specific lipid related topic. The project must include experimental work, and should result in a report, that is the basis for the evaluation of the course. | |||||||||||
