Résumé

The applicability of Time Temperature Integrators (TTIs) for frozen chain management was assessed. Shelf life kinetics indices of frozen green peas and white mushrooms and response kinetics of suitable enzymatic TTIs were used to confirm the monitoring effectiveness of TTI, in a controlled field test with 200 products. Comparison of actual measurements and quality indices showed that TTI response provides a reliable indication of the quality status of products. The potential of Least Shelf-Life First Out (LSFO) system, a TTI-based management system for frozen product distribution and stock rotation, was demonstrated by the Monte Carlo technique and showed consistent, acceptable quality and minimization of rejected products at the consumer end.
