1. 1. Harmless bacteria.
2. 2. Beneficial bacteria.
3. 3. Undesirable bacteria.
4. 4. Disease-causing bacteria, or pathogens.
  1. Bacterial growth
    1. Food
      1. The best protection against bacteria is temperature and good food handling.
        To prevent them from growing: Temperatures below 5 ºC or above 57 ºC as these kill the bacteria
        To avoid killing them: it is subjected to a temperature of 77 ° C for 30 seconds.
    2. Moisture.
    3. Temperature.
    4. Acidity or alkalinity.
    5. Oxygen.
    6. Time.
    7. Under ideal conditions for growth bacteria can double in number every 15 or 30 minutes.
Parasites
1. They are organisms that survive inside another organism, this organism is called host. Human parasites are usually very small and can be killed by cooking properly or freezing.
Viruses
1. Viruses are smaller than bacteria, can not reproduce or multiply unless they are inside a living cell, but can be transported on any surface and survive days or even months. Viral diseases transmitted by food are caused by contamination of people or in the case of seafood by contaminated water
