How It Works

Calculate oxygen ingress through food packaging from OTR data, package dimensions, and headspace oxygen limit to determine shelf life for oxygen-sensitive products

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • OTR data — The otr data recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.
  • Package dimensions — The package dimensions recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.
  • Headspace oxygen limit — The headspace oxygen limit recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the packaging otr result against the clinical thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the OTR data, package dimensions, headspace oxygen limit for the patient or scenario you are assessing. Calculate oxygen ingress through food packaging from OTR data, package dimensions, and headspace oxygen limit to determine shelf life for oxygen-sensitive products. Use the packaging otr result to inform your clinical assessment.
