Course Descriptions:

This 3-day course is designed for practicing surimi technicians/technologists (QC and R&D), operators, and marketers who wish to develop a pragmatic knowledge of surimi technology and its utilization in food product development, as well as to learn the market trend of surimi and surimi seafood.  This course will review the chemistry, microbiology, and rheology of surimi, the functional applicability of surimi additives like cryoprotectants, enzyme inhibitors, binders, fillers, colorings, flavorings, and production know-how. In addition to the lecture program, there will be hands-on practice and experiments. This program should be of particular value to surimi technicians, technologists, and engineers, who operate and develop the processes for surimi and surimi seafood.  There will be an optional, written examination for certification.
