Abstract:
A time-temperature integrator (TTI) is a device used to show a time-temperature dependent change that reflects the temperature history and quality status of the food to which it is attached. An enzymatic TTI system based on the reaction between Burkholderia cepacia lipase and tricaprylin, which causes a pH change, was developed. The temperature dependence of the response rate of this new lipase-type TTI was modeled using the Arrhenius equation, and the estimated activation energy was calculated as 70.61±11.10 kJ/mol (±95% confidence interval). The TTI response was validated under dynamic storage conditions with independent variable temperature experiments, and a good agreement was obtained between the predicted and measured values.
