Determination of (residual) oxygen and carbon dioxide content in ready-made packages
(Residual) oxygen and carbon dioxide content in sealed containers of any kind provided with modified gas atmosphere (MAP), e. g. cups, bottles, pouches, trays. The testing can be carried out with filled as well as empty packages. The method is not suitable for testing vacuum packages. Basic price, measurement of 5 emptied and cleaned packages included, additional measurements according to time.
In short — AI-generated
This test measures the residual oxygen and carbon dioxide concentration within sealed packages that use a modified atmosphere (MAP). A probe is inserted into the package to analyze the gas composition inside, which can be performed on both filled and empty containers.
The resulting values indicate whether the protective gas atmosphere was correctly established and maintained during the sealing process. Packaging developers use this data to verify the effectiveness of gas flushing and to ensure the shelf-life requirements for the packaged product are met.
