Line 52:
Under some circumstances, the shelf life is critical to [[health]]. Some [[medicine]]s begin to deteriorate (eg, in [[potency]]) or begin to accumulate toxic breakdown products immediately after manufacture or packaging. Depending on the material involved, this can be dangerous to life. Bacterial contaminants are ubiquitous, and foods left unused too long will often acquire substantial amounts of bacterial colonies and become dangerous to eat. [[Food poisoning]] is the result, and can be fatal.
Some companies use [[Induction Sealing]] to assist in the extension of the shelf life of their products.
