Additional information
Ddltesting emphasizes the importance of correlating accelerated aging test results with real-time aging studies to validate shelf-life claims. They advise caution when extrapolating Van't Hoff's theory to complex packaging materials, as it's based on single chemical reactions. Temperature selection for accelerated aging studies should avoid unrealistic failure conditions like melting. Their services are designed to help establish and verify expiration dates for a variety of products, ensuring compliance with quality and safety standards.
