| Description | Aseptic packaging is the lling of sterile containers with a commercially sterile product under aseptic conditions, and then sealing the containers so that reinfection is prevented; that is, so that they are hermetically sealed. Figure 13.1 illustrates the key aspects of aseptic packaging in diagrammatic form. The term aseptic implies the absence or exclusion of any unwanted organisms from the product, package or other specic areas, while the term hermetic (strictly air tight) is used to indicate suitable mechanical properties to exclude the entrance of microorganisms into a package and gas or water vapor into (or from) the package. The term commercially sterile is generally taken to mean the absence of microorganisms capable of reproducing in the food under nonrefrigerated conditions of storage and distribution, thus implying that the absolute absence of all microorganisms need not be achieved.
