Shelf-life prediction of minimally-processed chilled foods.

Author(s) : MCKENNA B. M.

Summary

The paper outlines the prediction software systems available and reviews the limitations involved. The limitations, although significant, have not inhibited the process and are mostly related to food and microbiological data deficiencies. Most serious amongst these is the lack of kinetic data for microbial growth and decay over a sufficiently wide range of substrate characteristics together with an almost complete absence of data in the temperature range where growth has stopped and killing/decay has not yet started.
