IFST Workshop: Determining Sensory Shelf-Life Discussion

Organised by Sensory Science SIG

Determining the shelf-life of food and drink products is an important element of launching a new product. The sensory aspects are integral part of this shelf-life as consumers expect good quality no matter what the age of the product. In this workshop via the three speakers and discussions, we will explore how shelf-life is measured and determined and how sensory and consumer science fits in.  Current and new methods and approaches will be described.

What participants will learn about: Sensory shelf-life approaches and techniques and how these fit in with the broader context.

Who should attend: IFST Members and non-members, sensory scientists, product developers, technical managers, product managers, quality professionals.
