What is the difference between biological chemical and physical contamination?

∙ 7y ago
A biological agent usually has no odor, color, or other signatures, while most chemical agents have one or more signatures.
A chemical incident is characterized by a rapid onset of medical symptoms, while the onset of symptoms from a biological incident could take days or weeks.
A biological incident can affect a larger geographic area, while a chemical incident can involve a smaller geographic area.

The biological and physical chemical application of oxidation and reduction include contaminant reduction and mineralization of organic matter.
Is things that rot a chemical change or a physical change?
Chemical, (biological, bio-organically), definitely NOT physical.

When storing raw fish in ice that is continuously draining helps prevent which type of contamination?
It prevents biological contamination.
What are different types of contamination?
There are four main types of contamination in water: Chemical, Radiological , physical, and Biological. The presence of contaminants is not necessarily a problem in itself. Many of the substances found in drinking water are harmless at low levels and some, like certain minerals, may even be beneficial. Physical contaminants Chemical contaminants Biological contamination Radiological contaminants Visit us for read more-
What is foodborne illness and cross contamination?
Food contamination is when something makes the food inedible or can cause illness when consumed. Contamination can be # Biological (bacteria, parasites, viruses, etc.) # Chemical (cleaners, sanitizers, additives, etc.) # Physical (glass, metal, etc.) Contamination is not necessarily obvious or visible.

What is the difference between siliciclastic and chemical or biochemical sedimentary rocks?
1) Chemical and biological sedimentary rocks are produced by chemical weathering instead of the siliciclastic sediments which are created by physical weathering. Because physical weathering is much more often than the chemical weathering there are 10 times more clastic sediments in the earth's crust than chemical and biological sediments.

What are the 3 types of food contamination and give example to each?
Within USDA FSIS (Food Safety and Inspection Service), there are three categories of hazards that must be addressed within the regulated establishment's HACCP plan - chemical (cleaners, sanitizers, preservatives, etc.), biological (E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, etc.), and mechanical (foreign particles, wood chips, metal flakes, etc.).
