Rheology of meat exudate for future meat packaging applications

Alaa Alaizoki, Christopher Phillips and Davide Deganello

The poster will address the challenges facing fresh meat packaging including meat drip and confinement odour. It will also review the current solutions developed for scavenging exuded drip in meat packaging and their impact on packaging recyclability. Early findings of rheology study of meat drip will be included for better understanding of flow properties of meat drip, and hence, developing future solutions for scavenging the meat drip and extending shelf life of the packaged meat. This research aims to promote the development of a future meat packaging as more enviromentally friendly and sustaiable.
