Shelf-life Sense and Sensibility webinar

When it comes to shelf-life there is a lot of science, practice, and myths. AIFST Tasmanian Branch, Seedlab Tasmania and the University of Tasmania, are pleased to present this webinar aiming to debunk the science behind shelf-life.

Our diverse range of speakers from academia to industry will offer insights into the concepts of shelf-life, with a refresher on the essential microbiological and sensory concepts behind it, different techniques of extending the shelf-life of your products and how to test it in a laboratory setting. 

This event is/will be of interest for small business operators, students and professionals who want to develop a deeper understanding of the concepts of shelf-life and offers an opportunity for virtual networking with the speakers and attendees after the event.

Presenters:

• Prof Tom Ross, University of Tasmania - Extending shelf life with quality - a paradox?
• Fiona Fleming, AIFST - Shelf life regulation
• Jodie Hill, Sensory Solutions - the sensory aspects of shelf-life
• Jasmine Lacis-Lee, BVAQ - the laboratory testing of shelf-life
• Dr Matthew Wilson, University of Tasmania – extending shelf life through ingredients and packaging

There will be plenty of time allowed for questions and discussion.
