Department of Microbiology and Food Hygiene  deals with food safety evaluation from the microbiological standpoint, the physiology of microorganisms in foods and the prediction models of their population growth for foods evaluation.

we offer the following services:

• basic microbiological analyses of foods and raw materials
• laboratory lyophilisation of samples up to 1 or 8 litre volume
• help in HACCP system implementation
• predictive microbiology to model possible pathogen growth in food production processes
