Determination of cooling rates and carbon dioxide uptake in commercially processed shell eggs using cryogenic carbon dioxide gas

POULTRY SCIENCE, 83(1), 89–94.

By: K. Keener n, K. Anderson n , P. Curtis* & J. Foegeding n

author keywords: carbon dioxide; cryogenic cooling; shell egg
MeSH headings : Animals; Carbon Dioxide / metabolism; Cold Temperature; Egg Shell / metabolism; Egg Shell / microbiology; Eggs / analysis; Eggs / standards; Environment, Controlled; Food Contamination / prevention & control; Food Handling / methods; Food Preservation / methods; Ovalbumin / chemistry; Poultry; Salmonella enteritidis / growth & development; Time Factors
topics (OpenAlex): Viral gastroenteritis research and epidemiology
TL;DR: It is suggested that a large amount of CO2 enters the egg during the cryogenic cooling process but is quickly lost during storage, and beyond 10 wk of storage, the albumen CO2 content in cryogenically cooled eggs was higher than in the traditionally cooled eggs suggesting chemical changes may have occurred in the band.
