The main, and probably the primary, reason is to increase the shelf life of the product and thereby ensure food safety. Various processes (for example heating, drying, canning, freezing, etc) inactivate the microorganisms responsible for food spoilage and/or foodborne diseases, or inhibit their growth

Food Processing Technology includes a set of physical, chemical, or microbiological methods and techniques used to transmute/transform raw ingredients into food and its transformation into other food processing firms.

Food analysis' is generally understood to refer to chemical or physical tests, assays or measurements, and could include a wide variety of analyses, such as determination of water, fat, fibre, nitrite or nitrate content, and measurement of mycotoxins and pesticide or herbicide residues
