Following the European regulation (EC) n°854/2004,inspection means "the examination of establishments, of animals and food, and the processing thereof, of food business, and their management and production systems, including documents, finished product testing and feeding practices, and of the origin and destination of production inputs and outputs, in order to verify compliance with the legal requirements in all cases"
In this practical work inspection of carcasses of meat animals in slaughterhouses will be illustrated: ante mortem inspection and special emergency slaughtering, post mortem inspection: techniques and processes post mortem inspection: disease conditions.
Inspection techniques in other animal species will be also briefly exposed (poultry).
The causes of condemnations will be also illustrated.

Inspection of food product from animal origin

THE PRESENCE OF STUDENTS IN THE PARACLINIC MODULE IS COMPULSORY AND THE TAKING OF PRESENCE IS SYSTEMATIC.
The absence will be considered unjustified if it does not follow a serious reason. Before the end of the week during which the student had this paraclinic (that is to say before Friday 17h, at the latest), the reasons justifying these absences (medical certificates or others) must be provided with the secretariat of the Department of Food Science. For certificates (medical, death of a family member, disability ...), the original is provided to the General Secretariat of Students of the FMV, with a copy sent to the secretariat of the Department of Food Sciences food.
Any justified absence (and considered as such by the supervisors) must be recovered during the same academic year.Unjustified absences will result in a grade of "A" in deliberation of the 1st session.
Any student declared absent (note "A") will not be able to recover this paraclinic during the year: he will have to perform this paraclinique during the second exam session.
If he is not in order at the practical level, the student will be considered as absent.
Any delay of more than 15 minutes results in a refusal of presence, which forces the student to justify himself before the end of the week. If the student has sent a proof before the end of the week (that is to say, the Friday of the paraclinic week, before 17h), he can recover the sessions at another time in the academic year. If the student does not send any proof, he will be considered absent.
The practical organization of paraclinics (time, place, appointments, materials ...) can be found on the faculty's website, in the section "class schedules" and on eCampus.
The department declines any responsibility in case of thefts, losses or damage caused to the objects of the student during the sessions. A response time of 24 to 48 hours should be considered for any email sent to assistants or professors (only e-mails sent by the institutional address ULiège will be taken into account). In addition, emails are not collected during weekends.
Students are asked to be proactive and use only their institutional email addresses. They should regularly check their emails for any information related to paraclinics. The supervisors will communicate the information only via the official channels (that is to say by using the email addresses and the institutional mailing lists).
