    For thousands for years man has been making efforts to grow more food for storage so that it can be used when needed. Modern man knows how to preserve food for use subsequently when needed. Man has adopted modern methods of food preservation in which its nutritional value and tastes are preserved foods are damages by bacteria, fungi and other micro organisms, which occur everywhere.

    These organisms can contaminate the food material making it unsafe for use and storage; therefore it is necessary to kill any bacteria or other organisms as soon as they enter food. Primitive method of preservation effected the taste of the preserved food, but modern scientific techniques attempt to prevent contamination of food, keep the taste and make it consumable even after a long period of storage.

    To achieve this, temperature plays an important role. Food that we take is usually made up of dead tissue and it can be spoiled for two reasons, either the food is contaminated and destroyed by bacteria or fungi or the enzymes still active in tissue start breaking down the cells thus making food poisonous and tasteless to eat. All bacteria, fungi and microorganisms are needed to be killed or their growth retarded, in order to protect the food from spoilage.
