Often we are unaware of the long and arduous journey food takes before reaching our plate. Retaining food freshness is in part due to creating gaseous micro environments that ensure the preservation of food quality. In the United States, it is estimated that food typically travels between 1500 and 2500 miles1 between the farms where it is produced and the dinner table where it is ultimately ...
‘Normal’ air has a composition of 78 % N2, 21 % O2 and 1 % argon alongside other trace gases.2 Of these gases, oxygen, is used the most carefully as it can react with the food, or provide the necessary conditions for the growth of microorganisms that lead to food spoilage.MAP is widely used in the food industry as it offers a way of extending shelf life without the use of any chemical additives ...
Extreme weather, believed to result from climate change and increased atmospheric CO2 levels, is a concern for many. And beyond extreme events, global warming is also expected to impact agriculture.1,2 Although it is expected that climate change will significantly affect agriculture and cause decreases in crop yields, the full effects of climate change on agriculture and human food supplies are ...
