Question

Match List I with List II 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below: 
 

• A. A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
• B. A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
• C. A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
• D. A-IV, B-I, C-III, D-II

Hint:

Canning Technology Matches:
Normal can ends = Concave or flat
Flat sour spoilage = Bacillus stearothermophilus
Neurolytic toxin = Clostridium botulinum
Process calculation method = Bigelow.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Canning thermal process calculations, can defect inspection, and microbial canning spoilage.

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Matching canning technology concepts in List I with parameters/pathogens in List II:
- A. Ends of a Normal Can: Under normal vacuum conditions, can ends must be IV. Concave or flat (swollen convex ends indicate microbial gas spoilage/flippers/swells).
- B. Flat Sour Spoilage: Thermophilic non-gas acid spoilage caused by I. {Bacillus stearothermophilus (Geobacillus stearothermophilus).
- C. Neurolytic Toxin (Botulinum Neurotoxin): Potent lethal neurotoxin produced by anaerobic endospore-forming II. {Clostridium botulinum.
- D. General Method of Process Calculation: Developed historically in 1920 by III. Bigelow (Graphical integration method for thermal sterilization lethality $F_0$).
Matching sequence: A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III.

Step 3: Final Answer:
Therefore, the correct matching is A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III, corresponding to option (A).
