Résumé

The temperatures and ages of 5389 packs of beef in 10 multiple shelf display cabinets were determined. The median temperature of the packs in each cabinet was <4 °C. The maximum temperatures of the packs in six cabinets were >7 °C. All packs in three cabinets were less than or equal to 2 days old. The percentages of packs older than 2 days were <1% in three cabinets, about 40% in three cabinets and about 70% in one cabinet. Aggregated data and data for individual cabinets indicated that, generally, older packs were cooler than newer, packs at the backs of shelves were cooler than packs at the fronts, and packs on intermediate shelves were cooler than packs on bottom or top shelves. Temperature gradients existed along five cabinets and temperatures of packs in different layers did not differ. Consideration of only aggregated data from surveys may lead to some erroneous conclusions about display cabinet performances.
