THE DRY SAUSAGES WERE RIPENED FOR 15 DAYS. POLYESTER/POLYETHYLENE LAMINATES WITH A MEAN OXYGEN PERMEABILITY OF 100 CM3/M2/24 H AND A FILM THICKNESS OF 87 MICROM WERE USED FOR VACUUM PACKAGING. STORAGE WAS AT 277 AND 293 K (4 AND 20 DEG C). TILL 125 DAYS' STORAGE THE STORAGE TEMPERATURE RATHER THAN VACUUM PACKAGING HAD AFFECTED THE STORAGE LIFE. A COMBINATION OF VACUUM PACKAGING AND REFRIGERATOR TEMPERATURES WAS FOUND TO EXTEND THE STORAGE LIFE OF THE PRODUCTS.
