20.500.12556/RUL-113071 The efficiency of thermal insulating bags during domestic transport of chilled food items It has been demonstrated that temperature control is critical in the last three steps in the cold chain including transport between retail and the consumer’s home. The aim of this study is therefore to evaluate the efficiency of thermal insulating bags meant to transport frozen foods from stores to consumers’ homes also in case of transporting chilled foods. The efficiency of three insulating and one typical PVC bag as a control is evaluated. Evaluation is done at different internal (related to the load of the bag) and external (related to the outside temperature) conditions, also taking their price into consideration. During evaluation, measurements of test objects’ internal temperature were executed at five-minute intervals with a Testo 177-T4 data logger. The measurements reveal variations of the test objects’ internal temperature in accordance with air temperature outside the bag and the degree of load in the bag. The evaluated insulating bags are not efficient enough to preserve appropriate temperature environments for chilled food items under experimental conditions. There was also no confirmation of any significant impact of insulating bag purchase price. food safety food transport cold chain insulating bags varnost živil transport živil hladna veriga izolirne vrečke true false false Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2019-12-02 09:21:34 2019-12-02 09:21:35 2022-08-25 03:52:32 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2013 0 0 Str. 21-30 no. 1 Vol. 7 dec. 2013 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 614.3:664.8.037 1854-0678 URN:NBN:SI:DOC-GZKOK8M0 4640619 216969216 RAZ_Ovca_Andrej_2013.pdf RAZ_Ovca_Andrej_2013.pdf 1 C2481AAC05D315A99CDE2809B6E1DB48 aba22ad67b61735a00c1bdd51b3438a2be0bbda7212a0b28c4c8f52812150df3 04a80e05-a1b8-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=125038 http://www.dlib.si/details/URN:NBN:SI:DOC-GZKOK8M0 1 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=125137 Zdravstvena fakulteta 0 0 0
