The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation was developed through the work of two scientists in the early 20th century. Lawrence Joseph Henderson first formulated the mathematical relationship in 1908, studying how acid-base balance is maintained in biological systems. A year later in 1909, Karl Albert Hasselbalch expressed Henderson’s work in a logarithmic form, creating what we now know … Read more
HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points. HACCP is a systematic, preventive approach to food safety that identifies, evaluates, and controls hazards throughout the food production process. It addresses three types of hazards: biological hazards like bacteria and viruses, chemical hazards like cleaners and pesticides, and physical hazards such as glass or metal fragments. … Read more
