THEORETICAL CONTENT
BLOCK I. BASIC FOOD ANALYSIS
Topic 1: Food composition. Labeling. Foods with Differentiated Quality.
Topic 2: Proximate analysis of foods: Moisture and Dry Matter, Ash, Crude Protein, Nitrogen-Free Extract, Crude Fat, and Crude Fiber.
BLOCK II. OLIVE OIL ANALYSIS
Topic 3: Composition of olive oil. Commercial categories. Legislation and Commercial Standards on characteristics of olive and pomace oils and analysis methods. Quality and purity characteristics.
Topic 4: Evaluation of acidity, oxidation state, and degree of unsaturation of olive oils. Organoleptic evaluation of virgin olive oils.
Topic 5: Analysis of major components: fatty acids and triglycerides. Analysis of minor components: sterols, erythrodiol and uvaol, aliphatic alcohols, stigmastadienes, waxes, and ethyl esters. Determination of 2-glyceryl monopalmitate.
LABORATORY PRACTICES
Block 1: Evaluation of the quality and purity of different commercial categories of olive and pomace oils. The following determinations will be carried out: acidity, peroxide value, K 232, K 270, fatty acid composition, moisture and volatile matter, iodine value, and saponification value.
Block 2: Food analysis. The following practices will be carried out: Determination of sodium chloride concentration in margarine or butter; determination of starch in bananas: maturity index; reducing character of sugars and reducing sugars in jam.
.
Theory classes: fundamentally expository method,
supported by the use of the blackboard and video projector. Student
participation will be actively encouraged at all times during
class.
.
Laboratory practices: students will be made aware
of the importance of applying good laboratory practices and, in
particular, of documenting all the work and experiences carried out
in the laboratory in a personal laboratory notebook. This will
greatly enhance their performance and understanding. Given the
maturity level of the students in this course, efforts will be made
to help them acquire a certain degree of independence in conducting
the practices, effectively managing the available time, and making
decisions when analyzing the presented samples. During the
development of the practices, efforts will be made to address
individual students' specific difficulties and emphasize the
concepts and ideas related to the practice at hand. The
instructions given to the students will be of an orientative
nature, avoiding the practice becoming a mechanical and valueless
task. Additionally, efforts will be made to establish a more
personal relationship with the students in the laboratory.
.
Seminars: support seminars will be conducted to
complement the theory classes. The professor will present a
specific topic for a limited time, and then the students will work
on solving the questions and/or exercises proposed.
.
Self-assessment exercises: several exercises will
be proposed to the students throughout the course, consisting of
short questions applying the theory. These exercises will be
carried out on the PLATEA teaching platform outside of class. They
will be available to the students for a certain period, and once
completed, they will be corrected and graded. The seminar hours
will be used to discuss and share the solutions to the different
questions.
.
Preparation and presentation of assignments:
several topics that complement the material taught in class will be
offered to the students for them to prepare in groups and present
in class. The primary objective of preparing these topics is to
raise awareness among the students about the importance of
nutrition in health, its impact on the environment, and the need to
be well-informed in this regard.
Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support
. Theory exam: the knowledge acquired by the students regarding the different analytical determinations commonly carried out in olive oils and other foods of the Mediterranean diet for quality and purity control will be assessed, as well as their application to specific cases.
Evaluated competencies: CE16
. Self-assessment exercises: the ability of students to think critically and solve problems related to food analysis, particularly in identifying possible adulterations in olive oils, will be evaluated.
Evaluated competencies: CE16
. Laboratory practices: the students' performance in carrying out the practices, the results obtained in each analysis, the discussion of results, and the laboratory notebook will be evaluated. The practices will involve analytical determinations explained in class, so the students' understanding of the underlying principles will also be assessed.
Evaluated competencies: CE16; P2
. Preparation and presentation of assignments: the correct use of chemical language, organization of ideas, and clarity of expression in the preparation of the work and during the presentation will be evaluated. The students' ability to engage in the subsequent debate will also be assessed.
Evaluated competencies: B4; B11

This course will contribute to achieving the following targets set in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) SDG-3 and SDG-12:
SDG-3
3.4 By 2030, reduce by one third premature mortality from non-communicable diseases through prevention and treatment and promote mental health and well-being.
SDG-12
12.1 Implement the 10-Year Framework of Programmes on Sustainable Consumption and Production Patterns, with all countries taking action, and with developed countries taking the lead, taking into account the development and capabilities of developing countries.
12.2 By 2030, achieve the sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources.
12.3 By 2030, halve per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer levels and reduce food losses along production and supply chains, including post-harvest losses.
12.4 By 2020, achieve the environmentally sound management of chemicals and all wastes throughout their life cycle, in accordance with agreed international frameworks, and significantly reduce their release to air, water, and soil in order to minimize their adverse impacts on human health and the environment.
12.7 Promote public procurement practices that are sustainable, in accordance with national policies and priorities.
12.8 By 2030, ensure that people everywhere have the relevant information and awareness for sustainable development and lifestyles in harmony with nature.
12.a Support developing countries to strengthen their scientific and technological capacity to move towards more sustainable patterns of consumption and production.
12.b Develop and implement tools to monitor sustainable development impacts for sustainable tourism that creates jobs and promotes local culture and products.
