Why vaccines need refrigeration?
It slows their spoilage.
What is used to prevent food from spoilage?

Why does refrigeration slows down the process of spoilage for apples?
An apple starts to spoil from the moment it is plucked from the tree. Refrigeration slows down bacterial and enzymatic spoilage and this leads to an extended shelflife.
How can food spoilage be retarded?
Food can be preserved by refrigeration, freezing, canning, and drying.

Bread mold is not an advantage. It is spoilage and ruins the bread.
Why do plastic containers expand in the refrigerator when the food spoils?
A byproduct of microbiotic or enzymatic spoilage can be a variety of gases. That's why containers of spoiled food will swell.
How does refrigeration help to prevent food spoilage?
Food spoils the fastest between the temperatures of 40oF and 140oF, therefore foods in preparation should not be kept at these temperatures. A refrigerator is below 40oF. bacteria causing food spoilage like to grow about body temperature. As it gets cooler they slow down in reproduction. Freezing stops their growth. Mold also slows at lower temp. A refrigerator slows decay process because it slows the growth rate of spoilage organisms.
Why are perservatives used in bread?
To prevent mold and spoilage.
How does heating able to stop food from spoilage?
Low temperatures, such as refrigeration, slow spoilage since most spoilage organisms grow at a slower rate when they are cold. Freezing stops microbial spoilage because the microbes stop growing.
How long does it take raw chicken to go bad?
It goes bad. Refrigeration retards spoilage but doesn't prevent it.
What is bacillus mesentericus?
This bacillus is involved in bread spoilage and the production of probiotics.
