Advanced Mathematics in Food

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Agriculture have been working on ways to ensure the quality and safety of smoked salmon, such as smoked salmon, which is an indispensable dish at holiday gatherings, in order to make it safe for people to eat. The results include the first innovation in the field to construct a new advanced mathematical model that allows food processors and others to select optimal temperatures and proper concentrations of salt and smoke mixtures to reduce or eliminate microbial contamination remaining on smoked salmon products.

Application of higher mathematical modeling of the assignment problem to the physical and chemical inspection of food products. Assignment problem in the management of the wider application of how to apply it to food physical and chemical inspection is still a new topic, which we have done a preliminary discussion, so that the average time to shorten the inspection of 1.76 days, per capita inspection pieces per year increased by 2.85 times, per capita number of inspection items increased by 3.36 times. Assignment problem through a simple matrix transformation, so that the rows and columns of zero elements, you can get the optimal assignment program. This method is simple and easy not only to improve efficiency, but also reduce labor intensity, received twice the result with half the effort.
