Intermediate moisture foods (IMF) are shelf-stable products that have water activities of 0.6-0.85, with a moisture content ranging from 15% - 40% and are edible without rehydration. [1] These food products are below the minimum water activity for most bacteria (0.90), but are susceptible to yeast and mold growth .
Foods is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering various aspects of food science. It is published by MDPI and was established in 2012. The editor-in-chief is Arun K. Bhunia ( Purdue University ).
The water in food has a tendency to evaporate, but the water vapor in the surrounding air has a tendency to condense into the food. When the two tendencies are in balance— and the air and food are stable—the air's relative humidity (expressed as a fraction instead of as a percentage) is taken to be the water activity, a w. Thus, water ...
The Journal of Food Engineering is a biweekly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering engineering, science, and technology related to food production. [1] The editor-in-chief is R. Paul Singh (University of California, Davis). According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2022 impact factor of 5.5. [2]
The Journal of Food Science and Technology is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering food science and food technology. It was established in 1964 and is published by Springer Science+Business Media on behalf of the Association of Food Scientists and Technologists of India , of which it is the official journal.
Pastirma is classified as an "intermediate moisture food". Lowering the moisture level is a form of food preservation that hinders the growth of microorganisms , and the cemen paste "is used to control surface mold growth during storage". [ 31 ]
The various types of food products manufactured by extrusion typically have a high starch content. [1] Directly expanded types include breakfast cereals and corn curls, and are made in high-temperature, low-moisture conditions under high shear. Unexpanded products include pasta, which is produced at intermediate moisture (about 40%) and low ...
