Food processing techniques.

What are the differences between (a) Pasteurization, (b) Commercial sterilization, and (c) Ultrahigh temperature processing (UHT). The discussion should be based on the processing method involved and preservation principles behind each method. In addition, what will be the shelf-life expectancy for food products treated by each one of these methods?
I am looking for more of personal notes instead of only notes from internet resources.


Solution Summary

The solution explains the differences between various food processing techniques such as pasteurization, commercial sterilization, and ultrahigh temperature processing, along with their respective preservation principles, and shelf-life expectancies.
