If product of volume v contained in pouch lose the moisture over an interval of time t. The following parameters affect the rate of drying Atmospheric Humidity (He) 10 Equilibrium Moisture (H) Initial moisture of the product (Mo) Product moisture content (M) Equilibrium moisture (Me) 4 Explain evaluation of Shelf life for moisture or oxygen sensitive product. 5 5 Define Sensory evaluation & explain objective method of Sensory evaluation. 10 6 Explain Discrimination test in detail. 10 7 Explain Descriptive test in detail. 10 8 Gives significance of Sensory evolution. 5 9 Explain factors affecting in Sensory measurement 10 10 Some crisps, sealed in a bag made from 25 m low density polythene, gained 1.1g in seven days, and 8.2 altogether. When the bag was cut open and reexposed. What type of wrapping would be required to give shelf life of 90 days 10 under the same conditions, assuming that total gain of 3.75g could be tolerated without loss of texture? 11 A packet of biscuit gained 0.25 g of water in the first day of exposure and 20 g altogether when left opened. At what time would it have gained exactly 5 g of 10 moisture ( the spoilage value) 12 An oxygen sensitive package food has a shelf life of 12 months. If the package thickness is decreased by 20% and the surface area is decreased by 30% What is 10 the new Shelf life ? 13 A 100 g oxygen sensitive food is vacuumed packed into multilayer plastic pouch, which has a thickness of 10 mil, a surface area of 80 in2, and oxygen 10 permeability of 0.12 (cc mil)/(100 in2 day atm). What is the estimated shelf life if the oxygen tolerant limit of the product is 5ppm? .
