Summary

The influence of temperature and gas composition on quality deterioration rate was modeled using a combined temperature (Arrhenius)-gas composition (exponential relation)-quality deterioration (first order) model. The model was validated under dynamic temperature conditions showing limitations of the time-temperature-tolerance-concept.
