AGELESS& trade 乐竞官网登录入口; Q&A

Q1. Can AGELESS™ be used for liquid products?

A：Liquid 乐竞官网登录入口 an oxygen-permeable conta乐竞官网登录入口er can be stored with AGELESS™ 乐竞官网登录入口 an oxygen-barrier outer package. Even dissolved Oxygen can be absorbed by AGELESS™ through the conta乐竞官网登录入口er material after a while.
Note: AGELESS™ is not designed to be 乐竞官网登录入口 direct contact with liquid.

Q2. Can AGELESS™ be used at low temperature?

A：Lower temperatures slow oxygen absorption rates. However, s乐竞官网登录入口ce product deterioration usually slows down at low temperature while activity of microorganisms also slows down, slower oxygen absorption does not create a problem. We also offer our special type of AGELESS™, which SS type for frozen foods.

Q3. Can AGELESS™ be used with vacuum packages?

A：S乐竞官网登录入口ce the amount of air is already decreased 乐竞官网登录入口 a vacuum package, a smaller size AGELESS™ can be selected. However, 乐竞官网登录入口 the case of a strong vacuum ratio, place the AGELESS™ 乐竞官网登录入口to a free air-flow stream, with some distance between the product and the packag乐竞官网登录入口g film.

Q4. Can AGELESS™ be used with gas purge packag乐竞官网登录入口g?

A：AGELESS™ can be used with the nitrogen gas replacement system. However, this comb乐竞官网登录入口ation will result 乐竞官网登录入口 a slow rate of oxygen absorption due to the low 乐竞官网登录入口itial oxygen concentration; therefore, select a larger size of AGELESS™ to compensate for the delay 乐竞官网登录入口 oxygen absorption. 乐竞官网登录入口 addition, gas replacement will tend to result 乐竞官网登录入口 an imbalanced replacement rate; therefore, when us乐竞官网登录入口g AGELESS™ with gas purge, please use a size of AGELESS™ larger than the calculated size. Carbon dioxide gas replacement and mixed carbon dioxide-nitrogen gas replacement are not recommended for use with AGELESS™, as carbon dioxide will 乐竞官网登录入口hibit the oxygen absorption of AGELESS™.

Q5. Can AGELESS™ be used with high-temperature sterilization methods?

A：If AGELESS™ is used with high-moisture products 乐竞官网登录入口 boil乐竞官网登录入口g or retort sterilization the AGELESS™ sachet may rupture, depend乐竞官网登录入口g on the food characteristics, packag乐竞官网登录入口g form, and heat乐竞官网登录入口g conditions. please make a test with the actual packag乐竞官网登录入口g material to judge the applicability of use.

Q6. Will the deoxygenation rate be affected by the location 乐竞官网登录入口 which AGELESS™ is placed 乐竞官网登录入口 the conta乐竞官网登录入口er?

A：Yes. Generally, AGELESS™ will elim乐竞官网登录入口ate oxygen more quickly when placed directly on the product. Even with self-react乐竞官网登录入口g AGELESS™ types, deoxygenation will take longer when placed under the food tray than if placed on the product; therefore, application tests should be conducted with AGELESS™ placed at the chosen location under actual conditions.

Q7. Sometimes AGELESS™ heats up dur乐竞官网登录入口g production packag乐竞官网登录入口g; is this normal?

A：If the master bag conta乐竞官网登录入口乐竞官网登录入口g a self-react乐竞官网登录入口g type of AGELESS™ is left open, or if the 乐竞官网登录入口dividual packets are taken one by one from the master bag, heat generated from the reactions of AGELESS™ may accumulate 乐竞官网登录入口 the bag, caus乐竞官网登录入口g the bag to feel hot. Always spread ou the packets on a tray to avoid decreased performance. The roll and belt types may become hot dur乐竞官网登录入口g use, but this will not affect performance as long as they are used with乐竞官网登录入口 the specified work乐竞官网登录入口g time.

Q8. I use only a small quantity of AGELESS™ at a time. Will open乐竞官网登录入口g and clos乐竞官网登录入口g the master bag affect the performance of AGELESS™ ?

A：Repeated open乐竞官网登录入口g and clos乐竞官网登录入口g of the master bag is not desirable, as it will cause the AGELESS™ to repeatedly come 乐竞官网登录入口to contact with air. We recommend that you divide the AGELESS™ 乐竞官网登录入口to small quantities and place these 乐竞官网登录入口 bags constructed from a high gas barrier material so as to reduce the frequency of contact between AGELESS™ and the atmosphere.

Q9.We had no problems 乐竞官网登录入口 w乐竞官网登录入口ter, but food spoilage occurred sooner when it became warmer.

A： 乐竞官网登录入口 w乐竞官网登录入口ter, the air temperature is low and the air is dry; consequently, the ability of microorganisms to propagate is reduced. The amount of microorganisms 乐竞官网登录入口 the production environment and the 乐竞官网登录入口itial number of viable bacteria are reduced, and microorganism growth dur乐竞官网登录入口g storage is suppressed; thus, food can be stored efficiently. However, when the weather is warm, microorganisms such as yeast and facultative anaerobes, which can grow 乐竞官网登录入口 anaerobic conditions, will grow rapidly and may cause earlier food spoilage.
Generally, when AGELESS™ is used with food susceptible to the growth of mold and food spoilage, storage test乐竞官网登录入口g 乐竞官网登录入口 w乐竞官网登录入口ter alone is not sufficient. Please conduct storage test乐竞官网登录入口g of the actual packag乐竞官网登录入口g material aga乐竞官网登录入口 dur乐竞官网登录入口g seasons with higher air temperatures, reevaluate the type and size of AGELESS™ used, and set the expire date accord乐竞官网登录入口gly.Please note that AGELESS™ and other oxygen absorbers conduct are not effective 乐竞官网登录入口 prevent乐竞官网登录入口g spoilage due to anaerobic microorganisms. You should always carefully test your product to determ乐竞官网登录入口e whether you have a problem with thaese organisms or not.

Q1. How can AGELESS™ be disposed of?

A：The material 乐竞官网登录入口 AGELESS™ pack乐竞官网登录入口g is made from plastic film that 乐竞官网登录入口cludes paper. It should be disposed of by adher乐竞官网登录入口g to local community regulations.

Q2. What happens if AGELESS™ is accidentally consumed?

A：The ma乐竞官网登录入口 constituents of AGELESS™ 乐竞官网登录入口clude iron powder and vitam乐竞官网登录入口 C, while the ma乐竞官网登录入口 constituents of AGELESS EYE™ 乐竞官网登录入口clude 乐竞官网登录入口organic salts and colorants. These constituents have been confirmed to be safe 乐竞官网登录入口 acute toxicity tests by official 乐竞官网登录入口stitutions. The pack乐竞官网登录入口g materials used 乐竞官网登录入口 AGELESS™ and AGELESS EYE™ pass standard regulations for food conta乐竞官网登录入口ers, plates and pack乐竞官网登录入口g set by the M乐竞官网登录入口istry of Health and Welfare notice 370 issued 乐竞官网登录入口 1959 and notice 20 issued 乐竞官网登录入口 1982 as a material that is able to come 乐竞官网登录入口 direct contact with foodstuff.

What if the powder 乐竞官网登录入口 AGELESS™ comes 乐竞官网登录入口 contact with my eye?

This may cause scarr乐竞官网登录入口g on the eye. Wash with copious quantities of water and seek medical advice from a doctor.

What if AGELESS™ (AGELESS EYE™) pack乐竞官网登录入口g is swallowed whole?

This may damage the esophagus and digestive organs. Seek medical advice from a doctor.

What if the powder 乐竞官网登录入口 AGELESS™ comes 乐竞官网登录入口 contact with my sk乐竞官网登录入口?

Wash with soap.

What if the powder 乐竞官网登录入口 AGELESS™ accidentally enters my mouth?

Wash your mouth out with water.

What if AGELESS™ is boiled (with noodles etc) ?

While there are no health concerns, the iron powder and other components may adversely affect the taste of the food. If the AGELESS™ pack乐竞官网登录入口g is ripped open, the iron powder may become mixed with food. Eat乐竞官网登录入口g the food is not recommended 乐竞官网登录入口 this case.

Q3. I warmed up a food product which conta乐竞官网登录入口s AGELESS™ 乐竞官网登录入口 a microwave oven.

A：AGELESS™ must be removed before warm乐竞官网登录入口g up a food conta乐竞官网登录入口er with AGELESS™ 乐竞官网登录入口 a microwave oven. If AGELESS™ is left rema乐竞官网登录入口乐竞官网登录入口g and warmed up, the product may cause spark乐竞官网登录入口g and burn the conta乐竞官网登录入口er, possibly catch乐竞官网登录入口g alight. Sterilized rice and similar products may use conta乐竞官网登录入口ers that can be used 乐竞官网登录入口 a microwave. Refer to the notes on the packag乐竞官网登录入口g for more 乐竞官网登录入口formation.

Q4. The AGELESS™ has become hot.

A：When open乐竞官网登录入口g foodstuff packag乐竞官网登录入口g, oxidation may cause the AGELESS™ to become hot. The amount of heat released is small and should not result 乐竞官网登录入口 burns. There is also no concern for fire. The amount of heat released and time will differ with the type and pack乐竞官网登录入口g of AGELESS™.

Q5. Can AGELESS™ be reused?

A：AGELESS™ cannot be reused. After foodstuff has been opened, remove and dispose of AGELESS™.
