Summary

The authors monitored residual oxygen levels and microbial growth over a 4 month refrigerated (4°C) storage period in order to obtain information as the food quality, the packaging process, and storage conditions of cheddar cheese packed under modified atmosphere conditions (70% N2, 30% O2). The technology applied (sensor stickers and an optical analyser) was not non-invasive and inexpensive.
