Tomato is one of the sensitive fruits to mechanical impacts and physical tensions. The mostmechanical damages arise from handling which results in reducing tomato quality. in this study,impact energy effect has been studied in 3 different levels 0, 0.14 and 0.25 J by a pendulum impactapparatus, on changes of physicochemical properties of tomato, hybrid variety Shiva F1, includingripening factor...

this study evaluated the antimicrobial activities of two lactic acid bacteria, lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis i23 and lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis e91, against brochothrix thermosphacta in pork meat during storage at ambient temperature (30°c) for 168 h. the lab strains and the spoilage organism were inoculated on fresh pork samples at 1×106 cfug-1. results showed about 3 log reduction in...

background: today, in an attempt to reduce the human exposure to synthetic compounds such as chemical preservatives, some studies aimed at the replacement of artificial preservatives with natural ingredients with natural protective effects. methods: in the present study the microbial inhibition effect of saturejaba chtiarica essential oil in three different concentrations (0.1, 0.05, and 0.025%...

the present study examined the effect of packaging film on the quantitative and qualitative properties of button mushrooms. the three types of packaging tested were a clear polyvinyl chloride box, polyvinyl chloride stretch film and biaxially-oriented polypropylene film (bopp). the five types of moisture absorbers examined were silica gel (2.5 g, 1.25 g), sodium chloride (2.5 g, 1.25 g), and si...

introduction: pharmaceutical companies as well as food and cosmetics manufacturers are legally required to provide a shelf-life label on their products packaging as part of their stability study report. there are different recommended software like r software package and sas which can perform as shelf-life estimating tools for analyzing the data achieved by the stability testing of drugs and va...

abstract sour cherry (prunus cerasus l.) is an important iranian-native fruit, considered highly perishable commodity which cannot be stored for any length of time. on this study, effect of three gas compositions (ambient, 5% o2+5% co2+90% n2 and 10% o2+15% co2+75% n2) and two storage temperatures (0 and 5 °c) on two sour cherry cultivars namely erdy jubileum and erdy botermo was studied in a c...

using titanium dioxide nano-silver packaging, which is antibacterial and resistance to the diffusion of gases such as oxygen, is increasing in food industry. therefore, we compared the effect of titanium dioxide-based nano-silver packaging and conventional polyethylene packaging on the fungal flora of consuming bread in order to increase the shelf-life storage of consuming bread. one hundred fo...

The shelf-life of a drug product is the time that the average drug characteristic (e.g., potency) remains within an approved specification after manufacture. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires indication for every drug product of a shelf-life on the immediate container label. Since the true shelf-life of a drug product is typically unknown, it has to be estimated base...
