Summary

Many aspects of temperature as a basic factor of quality and shelf life of frozen food are described in this article. Methods of shelf-life estimation: temperature coefficient Q(10), coefficient of daily quality losses A(i), curves TTT, and additional factors of shelf-life correction including PPP factors and substances with selective protection function. Shelf life and shelf-life regain notions are also explained. Different types of temperature fluctuations and their involvement in food product changes, especially undesirable physical changes (sublimation, recrystallization) were described.
