EFFECTS OF CRYOTEMPERATURES ON FOOD PRODUCTS AND PACKAGING DURING RAIL TRANSPORT.
Author(s) : ASHBY B. H.
Summary
THREE FROZEN AND PACKED FOOD PRODUCTS WERE SUBJECTED TO SHOCKS AND VIBRATIONS SIMULATING THOSE OF RAIL TRANSPORT AND HANDLING RIGORS AT 203 AND 255 K (-70 AND -18 DEG C). THE EXTENT OF PACKAGING AND PRODUCT DAMAGE AND FRACTURE WAS DETERMINED. THE EFFECT OF A TEMPERATURE OF 203 K ON SENSORY TESTS AND ON VARIOUS CHARACTERISTIC PARAMETERS OF THE PRODUCTS WAS DISCUSSED. THE RESULTS SHOW THAT FROZEN FOODS CAN BE TRANSPORTED AT 203 K WITH MINIMUM PRODUCT OR PACKAGE DAMAGE IN TIGHTLY BRACED LOADS, PROVIDED THEY ARE NOT ABUSED DURING HANDLING.
