description:	Ontomatica's Food Microbiology Data Application integrates relevant ontology rules (items, properties, relationships and constraints) with relevant data sets. The Food Microbiology Data Application is used to specify actions to balance microbiology in a food product. Background: Food microbiology is the study of the microorganisms that inhabit, create, or contaminate food, including the study of microorganisms causing food spoilage. "Good" bacteria, however, such as probiotics, are becoming increasingly important in food science. In addition, microorganisms are essential for the production of foods such as cheese, yogurt, bread, beer, wine and, other fermented foods.
