The company seeks to conduct a comprehensive microbiological analysis of its white pepper to identify and quantify any microbial presence. This project aims to assess the microbial load, identify potential pathogens, and ensure compliance with food safety regulations. By applying microbiological techniques learned in the classroom, students will gain hands-on experience in analyzing food products. The project will involve sampling, culturing, and identifying microorganisms, as well as interpreting results to provide actionable insights. This initiative will help Sineha Spices maintain its reputation for quality and safety in the spice industry.
