Abstract:

Shelf life of food is an important index for food quality and safety so that it is of practical significance to study food shelf life. In this paper, the concepts of shelf life and frozen food are introduced and the effect of temperature on shelf life and quality of frozen food is discussed. Due to the special properties of frozen food and problems in cold chain logistics, the prediction of shelf life for frozen food at fluctuating temperature conditions is becoming the focus of current studies. Therefore, three important stages for shelf life are demonstrated here in detail. In addition, the future creative points and development trend for shelf life of frozen food are also proposed.

Key words: frozen food, shelf life, storage temperature
