Schedule
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
Several phytochemical classes of primary and secondary metabolites are present in food and they explain organoleptical properties ( bitterness, sapidity, taste,colour, odour..) as well as physiological properties (antioxidant, hypocholesterolemic, stimulant., oestrogenic, antimicrobial..) or toxic effects ( carcinogenic, cardiotoxic...). The stability of food is also dependent on the presence of the chemical content.
Phytochemical introduction and primary metabolites
Pharmacognosy (partim 1) is mainly focused on phytochemistry: presntation of various kinds of primary (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins ) metabolites
Phytochemical introduction to secondary metabolites
Pharmacognosy (partim 1) is mainly focused on phytochemistry: presntation of various kinds of primary (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins ) and mainly secondary metabolites (phenylpropanoids: lignans, flavonoids, coumarins.., terpenoids and steroids, alkaloids...)
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Provide informations about several primary ( biopolymers and omega-3 and -6 triglycerides ) and secondary metabolites (shikimates: phenylpropanoids, coumarins, lignans, flavonoids and tannins, terpenoids and steroids, alkaloids...)present in food in order to analyse and increase the value of food
