    Question

    Which of the following is the most soluble gas used in

    MAP a) Carbon Dioxide b) Nitrogen c) Oxygen d) Argon
    A Only A is correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only B is correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only D is correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D A and B are correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E C and D are correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Explanation: Carbon Dioxide is the most soluble gas used in MAP. The solubility of CO2 is 3350 mg/kg at 0°C. The solubility of Oxygen, Nitrogen and Argon is 69, 29, 100 mg/kg at 0°C respectively. The solubility of CO2 increases with decreasing temperature. For this reason, the antimicrobial activity of CO2 is markedly greater at temperatures below 10°C than at 15°C or higher.
