Long shelf-life

Pet Foods and Commercial Animal Feeds. Eor many years, it has been known that stable, long-shelf-life, intermediate-moisture pet foods can be prepared through the use of 0.1—0.3 wt % sorbates. In these products, the antimicrobial effectiveness of sorbates is enhanced by a combination of moderate heat treatment, pH adjustment, and reduced water activity via humectants such as propylene glycol, or by adjusting sugar and salt content. These techniques have been reviewed extensively (138,139). 

High energy density batteries with long shelf life, developed originally for military use, are based on lithium and thionyl chloride. These batteries are used ia backup or standby power sources for computer, missile, and telephone systems (191,192).

Blocked isocyanate, for our purposes, will refer to the reaction product of a diisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer in which the isocyanate functionality has been reacted with a blocking agent . Once blocked , the diisocyanate can be added to polyols or certain chain extenders, and these materials will not react at room temperature. The concept is shown in the sixth item of Fig. 1. An adhesive formulated with a blocked isocyanate is basically a two-component adhesive that does not react until heated to the activation temperature. When an adhesive is made with a blocked isocyanate together with hydroxyl-containing curatives, the adhesive has a good long shelf life at room temperature. However, once heated... 

The term modified two-component urethanes refers to systems in which one or more of the reactants in a two-component system are temporarily blocked to prevent reaction. The modified two-component system does not have the long shelf life of a standard one-component blocked system. 

Xenon difluoride [4, 5, 7, 8,10] is a white crystalline material obtained through the combination of fluorine and xenon m the presence of light The reagent is commercially available and possesses a relatively long shelf-life when stored cold (freezer) Xenon difluoride is very effective for small-scale fluormation of alkenes and activated nucleophilic substrates. The reactions are usually conducted between 0 °C and room temperature in chloroform or methylene chloride solutions Hydrogen fluoride catalysis is sometimes helpful Xenon difluoride reacts in a manner that usually involves some complexation between the substrate and reagent followed by the formation of radical and radical cation intermediates... 

Acesulfame potassium is used with other sweeteners such as aspartame because it has a long shelf life, and tastes sweet right away. It also has a synergistic effect with other sweeteners, so less of each is necessary to achieve the same sweetness. 

The color is stable at 60°C for 30 min and has a long shelf life at pH 6 to 7. As an ingredient in dry food preparations stored under low humidity conditions, it is very stable. A number of patents have been granted for use of the red color from Porphyridium in foods. 

In particular, oil spill-treating agents should have a long shelf life and should be ... 

A number of staining procedures have been described. Some stains, such as chlorazol black, require fresh specimens and are not widely used. A variety of stains for fecal smears preserved by Schaudinn or PVA fixative have been described, including various hematoxylin stains. The stain most widely used in the United States is the Wheatley trichrome stain, which is the only permanent stain described in this chapter. The trichrome staining procedure uses reagents with a relatively long shelf life and is easy to perform. Note that there are differences in staining times depending on whether the specimen is fixed in Schaudinn or PVA fixative, as penetration is slower in the latter. 

The group of Caddick has described the synthesis of functionalized sulfonamides by microwave-assisted displacement of pentafluorophenyl (PFP) sulfonate esters with amines (Scheme 6.159) [306]. Their ease of handling due to their higher crystallinity, along with their long shelf-life and their ability to react under aqueous reaction conditions, makes these an attractive alternative to sulfonyl chlorides. The microwave-assisted reaction of alkyl PFP esters with amines is a facile process which proceeds cleanly and in good yields with a number of different amines, including primary, secondary, and sterically hindered amines, and anilines. Optimum condi-... 

Combat medicine poses special problems. Chemical science and technology can aid in the rapid detection and treatment of injuries from chemical and biological weapons and other new weapons such as lasers. We need to develop blood substitutes with a long shelf life, and improved biocompatible materials for dealing with wounds. For the Navy, there are special needs such as analytical systems that can sample the seawater to detect and identify other vessels. We need good ways to detect mines, both at sea and on land. Land mines present a continued threat to civilians after hostilities have ended, and chemical techniques are needed to detect these explosive devices. 

Some bakery products have a long shelf life while others have a relatively short life. In some products the shelf life is limited not by the bakery component but by the filling, e.g. meat pies and cream cakes. 

Cakes are in principle subject to all the threats to a long shelf life that any other bakery product is subject to. The product can dry out, the starch can retrograde or mould can grow. These are in addition to the threats of oxidation, loss of flavour and lipolysis by any enzymes present. 

Provided an excess of the hydroperoxide is not used, sulfoxides are obtained in essentially quantitative yields in short reactions times, usually 0.7-2.5 h (42). The method is uncomplicated and can be carried out on the benchtop. The long shelf-life of 1 (> 3 months) adds to the convenience of this procedure. A wide variety of functional groups is tolerated on R and R. The reaction affords nearly pure sulfoxides without contamination from sulfones. The product is obtained simply be evaporating the solvent and tert-butyl alcohol. This method avoids aqueous workup, which is often required when peracids are used (43), and is thus convenient for water-soluble sulfoxides.

A standard procedure for manufacturing liposomes is the film-forming method where the phospholipids are dissolved in an organic solvent. By rotational evaporation of the solvent a thin, multilayered film of phospholipids arises at the inner wall of the vessel. Redispersion of this film in water or aqueous buffer results in the formation of vesieles. The size of these vesicles and the number of bilayers vary. Henee further manufaeturing steps have to follow to obtain defined vesieular dispersions with a suffieiently long shelf life. 

Lithium SO2. The lithium SO2 systems are mainly used in military and some industrial and space applications. This system is particularly known for its capability to handle high current and high power requirements, for its excellent low-temperature performance, and for its long shelf life. They are typically fabricated in cylindrical structure by spirally winding rectangular strips of lithium foil, a microporous polypropylene separator, the cathode electrode, and a second separator layer. 

Slow release rates and remarkable long shelf-life (months) were obtained compared to typical multiple emulsions stabilized by two short surfactants (SMO and polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate). Finally, the long lifetime of the emulsions allowed study via diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS) of the interactions between the droplets and the globule surface [37],...
