    High risk foods

    These include:

    meat and meat products;

    milk and dairy products;

    fruit.

    If these foods become contaminated with food-poisoning micro-organisms and conditions allow them

    to multiply, the risk of food-poisoning increases.

  • 8/10/2019 Intoxications JESSICA

    18/114

    People at high risk

    Elderly people, babies and anyone who is ill orpregnant needs to be extra careful about the foodthey eat.

    For example, pregnant women or anyone with lowresistance to infection should avoid high risk foods suchas unpasteurised soft cheese.

    Factors affecting food poisoning

    Some common factorsleading to food poisoninginclude:

    preparation of food too farin advance;

    storage at ambienttemperature;

    inadequate cooling;

    inadequate reheating;

    under cooking;

    inadequate thawing.

    More common factorsleading to food poisoninginclude:

    consuming raw food;

    improper warm holding(i.e. holding hotfoodbelow 63C);

    infected food handlers;

    contaminatedprocessed food;

    poor hygiene.

    Symptoms of food poisoning

    Food poisoning can be mild or severe.

    The symptoms will be different depending on whattype of bacteria is responsible.

    Common symptoms include: severe vomiting; diarrhoea; exhaustion;

    headache; fever; abdominal pain; tiredness.

    Preventing food spoilage,

    contamination and poisoning

    Tips for transporting food back home: buy chilled and frozen foods at the end of the

    shopping trip;

    keep frozen and chilled foods cold, by using cool

    boxes/bags and packing these types of foods together;

    cooked and uncooked foods

    should be kept separate;

    dry and moist foods

    should be packed separately;

    household chemicals

    should be packed separately.

    Preventing food spoilage,

    contamination and poisoning

    Tips for storing food in the home:

    food should be unpacked as soon as possible;

    old stocks of food should be used before buying

    new ones (first in, first out theory); store food in the correct place, i.e. dry food, in cool,

    dry clean places and chilled food in the refrigerator.

    NOR OVERLY

    WELL, YOU KNOW

    Most rattlesnake bite victims are young

    men (18-28 yrs old) who are bitten while

    handling or provoking the snake.

    How to avoid being bitten or stung Never handle venomous animals Never place your hands or feet anywhere you cant

    see (and havent checked). For example:

    Never step into or over bushes

    Never reach up onto a rock or ledge

    Always pick up rocks, wood, etc. carefully, makingsure not to put fingers under the rock/wood, always

    lift it so that the rock/wood is between you and thepotential animal, and always check underneath. It isbest to use a tool to lift a rock/wood.

    POISONOUS VS VENOMOUS?

    Poisonousanimals possess toxins.

    For example, this Sonoran Desert Toad produces

    and secretes toxins from glands on its skin. The

    toads toxins are able to kill dogs that bite thetoad!

    e.g., Parotoid Gland

    61/114

    POISONOUS VS VENOMOUS?

    Venomousanimals inject their

    toxins.

    For example, this rattlesnake

    produces toxins in modifiedsalivary glands then injects

    toxins through hollow fangs.

    TYPES OF VENOM

    Hemolytic: affects circulatory system(hemo= blood) by destroying bloodcells and vessels. Symptoms include severepain, swelling, discoloration, and localtissue death. Shock can occur. Example:

    most rattlesnakes.

    TYPES OF VENOM

    Neurotoxic: affects nervous system (neuro).

    Symptoms may include local pain, headache,

    lethargy, paralysis and occasionally death by

    circulatory arrest or respiratory paralysis.Usually no swelling, discoloration, or tissue

    death. Examples include Black Widow,

    Scorpions, and Coral Snake.

    WHY BE VENOMOUS?

    1. Subdue Prey: allows predator to reduce chance of

    injury and to eat larger prey.

    2. Defense: protects animal from predators and other

    potential threats.3. Digest Food: venom is modified saliva, produced by

    modified salivary glands. Most contain compounds

    that aid in digestion (thought to be the original

    useof venom).

  • 8/10/2019 Intoxications JESSICA

    68/114

    WHY NOTBE VENOMOUS?

    1. Takes Special Equipment: requires glands to

    produce toxins and often specialized

    apparatus for injecting venom (teeth,

    modified ovipositor, etc.).2. Takes Energy and Materials: toxins are

    expensiveto produce.

    WAYS TO AVOID WASTING TOXIN

  • 8/10/2019 Intoxications JESSICA

    69/114

    WAYS TO AVOID WASTING TOXIN

    Match amount of venom to prey: use less

    for smaller prey, use more for prey that can

    get away easier (e.g., birds).

    AVOID USING TOXIN

  • 8/10/2019 Intoxications JESSICA

    ONE MORE WAY TO AVOID USING TOXIN

    doesn
