Excerpt from Journal of the Franklin Institute, Vol. 186: Devoted to Science and the Mechanic Arts; Nos. 1111-1116; July-December, 1918
From time to time various problems and difficulties were re ferred to scientific men not familiar with the industry, but, for the most part, the problems given them were incompletely or incorrectly stated or the workers had not the Opportunity to grasp the full scope Of the questions submitted to them.
Still there were several incursions Of scientific men into the problems of the canning industry which resulted in great good. Among these may be especially mentioned the work of Russel in 1895, of Prescott and Underwood in 1896 and on three subse quent occasions, and Of Harding and Nicholson in 1903. These articles - all on bacteriological subjects - while describing work which was not carried out to the extent that might have.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the scientific research conducted by the National Canners Association laboratories in the early 20th century, led by W. D. Bigelow. The book situates this work against the backdrop of contemporaneous scientific research in the United States as well as in the United Kingdom. It argues that this research was essential to improving canning as a means of food preservation, ultimately benefiting the military during World War I and civilians alike. The author also details some of the challenges in implementing the research's findings in the canning industry, slowed down by a lack of universal standards and resistance to sharing trade secrets among canners. Nevertheless, the research was novel and arose out of a need for consistent scientific study of the canning process. At the time, this work was seen as a major breakthrough in the field of food preservation, which was previously hampered by inconsistent scientific research. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
