18、:2015BS ISO 16779:2015Sensory analysis Assessment (determination and verification) of the shelf life of foodstuffs1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies methods for the determination and verification of the shelf life of foodstuffs by means of sensory tests. Sensory characteristics to be evalu
19、ated are changes in appearance, odour, flavour, taste, trigeminal sensation, and texture during assumed preservation periods.It is intended to support the development of individual approaches.This International Standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with
20、its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this International Standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.NOTE For the purposes of calculating the shelf life, before microbiological, chemical and physical
21、investigation results are used in addition to sensory testing.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable to its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the la

29、cedure4.1 GeneralA sampling plan comprising the specification of a starting point, the test period and the intended test intervals is prepared in accordance with 4.4. The test and reference samples are selected in accordance with 4.2. Then the test samples are subjected to a systematic storage (see
30、4.3). The sensory test is performed within the test intervals, up to the end point, applying the suitable test methods. Afterwards the results are evaluated.4.2 Selection of the test and reference samples4.2.1 Test samplesTest samples used for the determination and/or verification of the shelf life
31、shall be representative for the respective product as far as recipe, manufacturing process and packaging technique are concerned.The samples should be present in the packaging intended to be used for distribution. For the purposes of orienting preliminary tests, the test samples may also have been p
32、roduced on test plants or on the laboratory scale. When examining the shelf life, the test samples may also be taken from among commercially available products.If necessary, the test samples may be subjected to typical storage and distribution conditions (e.g. exposure to light, temperature and humi
33、dity variations, shaking or vibration, respectively).2 ISO 2015 All rights reservedBS ISO 16779:2015ISO 16779:2015(E)4.2.2 Reference samplesThe test samples should be compared with the respective reference sample.A reference sample can be any of the following:a) the standard used so far and descript
34、ive data obtained in previous sensory tests and available at the starting point, e.g. results of the investigation of profiles or of descriptive tests;b) a representative reference sample freshly produced for each test interval;c) a reference sample stored under conditions minimizing changes of the
35、specific product characteristics during the assessment period, such as storage under colder conditions or under a modified atmosphere.The reference samples can be complemented by data obtained in consumer surveys.4.2.3 Number and amount of the required test and reference samplesNumber and amount of
36、the test and the reference samples required over the whole test period depend on the test intervals specified in the sampling plan, the sensory test method, the test set-up, the nature of foodstuff and the storage conditions.4.3 Storage conditions4.3.1 Specified storage conditionsThe storage conditi
37、ons shall be specified in order to, for example, reproduce the channel of distribution of a product and to include changes of temperature, humidity, light, atmospheric pressure and the simulation of seasonal changes of the weather (temperature variations), packaging-related behaviour (migration, per
38、meability to oxygen, water vapour barrier, perforation, etc.).Specified storage conditions shall be recorded.4.3.2 Not specified storage conditionsNot specified conditions are conditions which can arise during proper storage, as a result of the environmental conditions. They shall meet the product-r
39、elated requirements and correspond with the storage conditions encountered in practice.The conditions of not specified storage or their changes, respectively, shall be recorded.4.3.3 Storage conditions intended to accelerate product changesAccelerating storage conditions is intended to promote faste
40、r changes in characteristic attributes for products of long shelf life and use by date.In cases of products with a longer shelf life (such as frozen fully preserved food and dried foodstuffs) shortening of the test period by means of accelerating product changes may be advisable.Accelerating storage
41、 conditions shall be adapted to the product.Accelerating storage conditions can be both specified and not specified and shall be recorded.In the absence of prior data that would suggest otherwise, an estimation of how to shorten the test period, the Arrhenius law may be useful when the shelf life of
42、 a product is linked to water activity.An increase of the storage temperature can save time with regard to the determination or verification of the shelf life of certain products; however, the values thus obtained only approximately reflect the products behaviour under normal storage conditions. ISO
43、 2015 All rights reserved 3BS ISO 16779:2015ISO 16779:2015(E)For certain products, higher temperatures may result in negative changes, e.g. appearance which would not arise under normal conditions and which are not necessarily directly associated with the shelf life.4.3.4 Examples of application whe
44、n the reaction/rate/temperature (RRT) is equal to 2a) Storage temperature of 20 C:Predicted or expected shelf life of 20 months: equal to the full period.b) Storage temperature of 30 C:Predicted or expected shelf life of 10 months equal to half of the full period.That means: after half of the full p
45、eriod, a conditional conclusion is possible.c) Storage temperature of 40 C:Predicted or expected shelf life of 5 months equal to a quarter of the full period.That means: after a quarter of the full period, a conditional conclusion is possible.4.4 Preparation of a sampling plan4.4.1 Specification of
46、the starting pointThe first step in preparing a sampling plan consists in the specification of a starting point. The starting point can be any of the following:a) the time immediately following production;b) the dispatch time;c) the time when the product usually arrives to the consumer;d) the time w
47、hen the product ingredients have reached equilibrium (e.g. unfolding of aroma following sterilization, etc.).4.4.2 Specification of the test periodOnce a starting point has been chosen, the shelf life to be expected is estimated. The basis for the estimated shelf life can be any of the following:a)
48、a shelf life already documented on the basis of available data obtained with similar products which are already established;b) the declared shelf life for similar products manufactured by national or international competitors;c) the shelf life required for marketing schedules, distribution systems o
49、r other logistical activities;d) the shelf life to be expected when using novel packaging materials or packaging systems;e) the shelf life to be expected when testing and/or integrating novel, sensible or sensitive ingredients.The test period may be longer than the estimated shelf life by 50 % or 100 % for products having a shelf life of less than 60 days and by about 25 %, for those with a shelf life of more than 60 days. The test period should be planned after the estimated shelf life to be sure to achieve the shelf life and to observe the se
