Shelf Life Testing Corn
- 1. SHELF LIFE EXTENSION OF CORN Shubham Chandra President Chandra Associates
- 2. Program Objective: To maintain a quality and freshness of CORN that permits consumption after 16+ days of storage at 34˚F (1.1 ˚C). To prove that designs with a Chandra Associates films (CA Film) generate a shelf life greater than that of design without films (control in air) at a storage temperature of 34˚F (1.1 ˚C). 5 Days After Harvest Designs Tested: A -CA Film in a polyethylene bag with 1.3 kg corn at storage temp B -Control in air - no membrane, with 1.3 kg con at storage temperature CORN TESTING RESULTS
- 3. Control – Protocol B CA FILM– Protocol A DAY 0
- 4. DAY 3 – PROTOCOL A Vs B Control – Protocol B CA FILM– Protocol A
- 5. DAY 18 – PROTOCOL A Vs B Control – Protocol B CA FILM– Protocol A
- 6. DAY 24 – PROTOCOL A Vs B Control – Protocol B CA FILM– Protocol A
- 7. DAY 24 – PROTOCOL A Vs B Control – Protocol B CA FILM– Protocol A
- 8. 24 DAYS OLD CORN (CA FILM)
- 9. Program Test Results The CA films ensured the quality and freshness of corn was maintained and permitted consumption even after 24 days of storage at 34˚F. Proved that designs with a Chandra Associates films (CA Film) generate a shelf life greater than that of design without films (control in air) at a storage temperature of 34˚F. 10 Days After Harvest CORNTESTING RESULTS
