(TCA), which has an extremely low sensory threshold level, causes musty ooor in foods. The
mechanisms of TCA migration in the proce函ing of foods were elucidated. Two main migration routes
were clarified : 1) the processed foods (ex. bottled) are tainted by TCA migrating through closures
dwing their storage from the outer TCA rich atmosphere., or 2) raw materials or the containers
themselves are previously tainted by TCA migrating through their packaging materials. •
of higher gas barriered packing materials or cap liners cleary prevented the TCA into processed
foods. Several other methods to prevent TCA migration are
also discussed.
