Author(s) : FU B., LABUZA T. P.

Type of article: Article

Summary

With the principles and methodology discussed in the paper, one should be able to decide whether one should employ a time-temperature integrator tag for a particular food, how to choose it, how to calculate the effective temperature for a variable time-temperature distribution, how to correlate the time-temperature integrator response with food quality or shelf-life, and how to calculate the quality loss or shelf life remaining correctly. Three time-temperature integrators available are discussed.
