An improvement to existing meals-ready-to-eat (MRE) rotational retort processes reduces the time that the food is exposed to heat. This is achieved by adding a pulsed electric field process (PEF) to the MRE process to aid in inactivating microorganisms in the food. The food may then be exposed to heat...http://www.google.fr/patents/US6083544?utm_source=gb-gplus-shareBrevet US6083544 - Process for the use of pulsed electric fields coupled with rotational retorting in processing meals ready to eat (MRE)
