Packaging development

The steady state TMB model equations are obtained from the transient TMB model equations by setting the time derivatives equal to zero in Equations (25) and (26). The steady state TMB model was solved numerically by using the COLNEW software [29]. This package solves a general class of mixed-order systems of boundary value ordinary differential equations and is a modification of the COLSYS package developed by Ascher et al. [30, 31]. 

Another valuable tool in food package development is the taste/odor Profile Test (18). Developed by the Arthur D. Little Company, this method uses a small panel of four to eight people specially trained in the procedure. Their analysis develops a full descriptive terminology for the product in question and assigns a numerical rating to each component of the taste/odor complex. 

This paper organizes some of the how and why of flexible package-food product interactions by discussing a few specific examples of food packaging development, as well as some overall factors of packaging material application.

The second development for which IGT is known world-wide is their work on biodesulfurization. The IGT intellectual property package, developed by Kilbane s group, includes two microorganisms, R. rhodochrous strain ATCC 53968 (IGTS8) and B. sphaericus strain ATCC 53969 as well as the enzymes derived from them and cell-free extracts. The biocatalysts and their use were protected in a series of eight patents (plus one US equivalent) and though in some patents a process is claimed, the main emphasis is on biocatalyst. A summary of these patents and the comparison with the early patents of EBC was given in Chapter 3. The patents were entitled ...

The approach of Bertini et al. 119) and Kruk et al. 96) was implemented in the software package developed in Florence 107) and is called the modified Florence method . The corresponding program is available in public domain (www.postgenomicnmr.net). The predictions of the ZFS rhombicity-dependence (for S = 1) of the modified Florence approach are compared with the general theory, with the original Florence method 107) and with the SBM approach in Fig. 10, taken from the work of Bertini et al. 119). 

A prior model was described by Marshall et. al. (36), but this did not Include the hemlhydrate population balance. A version of the present model was given by Steemson et. al. (37), centred around a simulation package developed for alumina plant modelling. This version Included hemlhydrate dissolution but used an assumed correlation for the dissolution rate. 

At various places in the text there are suggestions for further study to supplement a discussion or to address a question without a currently known answer. The CRUNCH program package developed by the author and his students is available on the Web for carrying out these studies. This program package was used for all of the examples in the book with the exception of those in Sections 2.2-2.6.

Packaging developments are likely to offer some exciting new opportunities in the future and soft drinks are likely to remain at the forefront of product innovation in many countries. 

The development of the board-polymer-aluminium package used to form in-line boxes, which are packed aseptically, has been perhaps the outstanding packaging development for beverages. The pack provides an almost ideal combination of protection, minimal weight and economic size. 

Another important packaging development area is plastic. Various plastics have been and continue to be used high- and low-density polyethylene (HDPE, LDPE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS) and various barrier plastics. These can be formed into bottles of conventional shape or fed into machines producing form-fill-seal packages, typically cups. 

The market has often been seen as one of low-quality products with an overriding convenience factor, but over the last 25 years packaging developments and increasingly affluent consumers have encouraged the development of this market. Early products in the market were packed in pre-formed plastic cups, pouches or early TetraPaks, but today there is a wide variety of packing options available. 

PET packaging has allowed drinks companies to move into in-house bottle production and to operate more independently from packaging manufacturers. In turn the packaging manufacturers have had to offer a more comprehensive service, from managing in-house operations to training customers operating personnel for fully owned operations. This has allowed drinks companies to drive their own packaging developments and product portfolios.

Stress testing is an important tool for the prediction of stability-related problems. The results of stress testing can be useful to many areas of pharmaceutical research and development beyond the obvious areas of analytical, formulation, and packaging development. Well-designed stress-test-... 

Hypercube s HyperChem is the best-known computational chemistry software package developed in Canada and marketed worldwide. Hypercube, Inc., the brainchild of Neil Ostlund, was incorporated in February 1985. The company has a headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario, adjacent to the University of Waterloo, but moved most of its operations to Gainesville, Florida, in 1997.
