This course provides an understanding of the types of food additives (antioxidants, sweeteners, flavouring, colours, preservatives, enzymes, nutritive additives, emulsifiers, bulking agents, hydrocolloids, antifoaming, and release agents, flour improver and raising agents, and chelating agents).
 
Nutritional Status Assesment / Metode Penilaian Gizi                                                 
2 credits                                
Prerequisite(s):  Food Chemistry, Food Biochemistry, Nutrition                          
This course deals with factors which determine and affect nutritional values in food. Such factors are materials, processing, and storage. It also concerns with methods of nutritional assay, which are chemical, physical, microbiological, enzymatic (in vitro) and biological (in vivo) method. It also includes its application and regulation. 
 
Nutrient Interaction / Interaksi Zat Gizi                                         
3 credits
                                

Prerequisite(s):  Food Chemistry, Food Biochemistry, Nutrition                          
This course discusses the nutrient (protein, lipid, carbohydrate, vitamin, and mineral) interactions among themselves, as well as with different nutrients. Moreover, it explains about interactions between nutrients and other components (anti-nutrients, toxic components or drugs). It also explains how nutrient interactions affect nutrient availability in the human body.
