10. To avoid foodstuff spoilage, articles should be stored in low temperatures, because 

only a very small number of microorganisms can grow without air circulation. 

 

11. If the temperature inside the refrigerator is above 4 °C (especially for prolonged 

periods), harmful microorganisms are given advantageous conditions for growth. 

 

For this reason it is necessary to keep the temperature of the refrigerator below 4 °C.

 

12. If the temperature of the freezer is -17 °C or below, this is the proper temperature for 

storage of foodstuffs; however, freezing will not kill microorganisms but slow their 
growth. 

 

13. Temperature also has an effect on items stored in vacuum packing: their shelf lives 

are extended by a factor of three to four with each drop in temperature of 10 °C.
