The effect of container size and type on lethality values during production of thermally processed wet pet foods

Wet pet foods make up 18% of the market. Most studies report thermal inactivation of pathogens, but data reporting the heat penetration in containers other than cans are scarce. THere, an abstract of an article by Molnar et al on determining heat penetration in various container types and sizes of p...

Summary:Wet pet foods make up 18% of the market. Most studies report thermal inactivation of pathogens, but data reporting the heat penetration in containers other than cans are scarce. THere, an abstract of an article by Molnar et al on determining heat penetration in various container types and sizes of pet food is presented.
