Abstract
Shelf life evaluation of soft dried Kluai Hom Thong was carried on a product developed for the Ban Lam Chang agricultural product processing community enterprise, Pratu Pa subdistrict, Mueang district, Lamphun province. This research aims to study the shelf life of soft dried Kluai Hom Thong product. The shelf life was studied under accelerated temperature conditions using the Q10 equation and/or kinetic reaction, which are often used to calculate the shelf life of products under accelerated temperature conditions controlled at three levels: 25, 30 and 40oC for a period of 12 weeks. The product was packed in metallite bags (Metallized Polyester, MPET) before storage and sampled to analyze physical, chemical, microbiological properties and sensory evaluation. The results found that the soft dried Kluai Hom Thong product has a shelf life at least 3.5 months at 35°C.The product's quality is acceptable to consumers and complies with the Thai community product standard for dried banana (112/2558). The information obtained from the research is suitable for the enterprise's product for consumers.
