Abstract: Ferre, Ellaine B., Ronario Remelyn G., Tibayan, Blesse M., Villamaria, Christine C., Applied Research IV (General Science Curriculum) Cavite State University, College of Education, Laboratory School, Indang, Cavite, March 2000, “Determining the Shelf-life of Carrot Powder in Two Different Types of Packaging Materials.” Advisers: Mrs. Fe Dimero. Prof. Dulce Ramos The study entitled ““ Determining the Shelf-life of Carrot Powder in Two Different Types of Packaging Materials “ was conducted to determine the better packaging material that can store carrot powder for a long time and to determine the economic feasibility of carrot powder. It was conducted at the Food Processing Center of Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite from September 1999 to March 2000. Good quality, fresh carrots were processed as powder. It was subjected to two treatments according to the types of packaging materials used in storing the carrot powder; T, glass jar and T2 High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) bags. Analysis of Variance, Duncan’s Multiple Range Test and Two — Tailed Test were used as statistical tools. Carrot powder stored in glass jars had darker color and had better odor than samples packed in HDPE bags. Microbial growth, specifically molds was evident in both samples as early as the first month of storage, such that the shelf-life of the carrot powder sample was only less than one month. It was also proven that when it comes to production cost, it is preferable to use glass jar because it has high quality material that can help store carrot powder for a long time. However, when it comes to commercial cost, High Density Polyethylene plastic bags should be used because they cost less than the glass jars.

The study entitled ““ Determining the Shelf-life of Carrot Powder in Two Different Types of Packaging Materials “ was conducted to determine the better packaging material that can store carrot powder for a long time and to determine the economic feasibility of carrot powder. It was conducted at the Food Processing Center of Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite from September 1999 to March 2000.

Good quality, fresh carrots were processed as powder. It was subjected to two treatments according to the types of packaging materials used in storing the carrot powder; T, glass jar and T2 High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) bags.

Analysis of Variance, Duncan’s Multiple Range Test and Two — Tailed Test were used as statistical tools.

Carrot powder stored in glass jars had darker color and had better odor than samples packed in HDPE bags. Microbial growth, specifically molds was evident in both samples as early as the first month of storage, such that the shelf-life of the carrot powder sample was only less than one month.

It was also proven that when it comes to production cost, it is preferable to use glass jar because it has high quality material that can help store carrot powder for a long time. However, when it comes to commercial cost, High Density Polyethylene plastic
bags should be used because they cost less than the glass jars.
