Features and Benefits
  • PURITY® 660 develops a smooth, short texture during retorting and develops viscosity more slowly and at higher temperatures than conventional starches. Therefore, it permits more thorough mixing inside the can which results in better heat transfer.
  • It also provides excellent stability during refrigerated and frozen storage and has good resistance to high shear and acid conditions.

Microbiological Limits

Initial testing is done on a single composite sample against a limit of m. If result is above m, the three class sampling and acceptance below is used.

  n c m M
Total Plate Count/g 5 3 10,000 100,000
Yeast/g 5 3 200 1,000
Mold/g 5 3 200 1,000
Enterobacteriaceae 5 3 100 1,000

Where n = # of samples tested; c = maximum allowable number of results between m and M; m = upper target limit; M = maximum acceptable value.
