    They wont stay vacuum sealed because some of them will off gas, then rot in their own gases. This is why they freeze dry and dehydrate foods for long term storage. Removing most or all of the moisture is key. Then vacuum seal it with some o2/moisture absorbing packs and some stuff can last 20-30 years.

    I’m a microbiologist in training and I think I know why the vacuum was disturbed. The answer is not likely that the seals broke or air got in, but more so the microbes and fungus living on the food created their own atmosphere. Many microbial decomposers are anaerobic which means they don’t need oxygen and occasionally don’t even need air to survive. Where you left the unsterile food exposed to unsterile objects, decomposers contaminated the samples and went to work regardless of air pressure. The lack of pressure may have disturbed some of them, but by the looks of it, mostly cells with cell walls survived because the cell wall helps to regulate the cells size and shape, resisting the vacuum chamber. As they broke down the saccharides (sugars) in the food, they created oxygen and carbon dioxide. Also, there could be traces of other gases depending such as nitrogen depending on what parts the microbes and fungus decomposed and what types of metabolisms they use to respire. Water could also be created through respiration which is why the bread may have been even more moist than it was to begin with.
    To sum it up, organisms that don’t require air or an atmosphere contaminated your samples and created their own atmosphere within a vacuum chamber.

    Note: As someone with over 15 years lyophilization experience, the main issue is that you still have residual moisture and oxygen in the foods themselves. You would need to actually freeze-dry the foods to prevent spoilage. While making freeze-dried pharmaceuticals, you generally have to reduce the moisture content of the freeze dried solids to under 0.1% to prevent mold and bacteria from growing.

      Exactly...100%, but if you were going to do something like this, you'll need to ensure all your jars are sterile, re-vacuum most items after its initial with a lot of moister (sp) after sitting for 30mins to an hour and also adding a salt pack.

    I don't think you needed to drill the lids - you could just have left them half unscrewed - same as for when they are used for canning - gas can escape by lifting the lid a little, but when the pressure outside the jar is greater, the lid is pressed into place and seals tight

    You are using canning jars, they are designed to use negative pressure to seal themselves.
    Take the lids and set them in near boiling water for about 10 minutes to soften the sealing compound, then when you go to vacuum seal the lids just put the rings to finger tight, once you remove them from the chamber take the rings off and you will know if you have a proper seal, it's very much like using heat or pressure canning. I would suggest that you redo this experiment properly rather than using a potential weak point such as that rubber taped over the top.

      Actually, some of the spores probably did get on his gloves and this would contaminate stuff that he could handle (like other bread and stuff that gets mold).
      The point of mold being somewhat dangerous is because of the toxins, and the spores that he got on the gloves even if they had any of the mold toxins, were microscopically tiny and won't affect him any way (other than increasing the risk of contaminating other stuff).
      We all have all kinds of spores on our skin and we breathe some in every day, some of them are of mold.

    You have demonstrated that when you pull out most of the air but leave moisture and nutrients behind, microbes that don't need oxygen can grow. This includes yeasts and molds, some of which are quite toxic. This also includes anaerobic bacteria. A common anaerobic bacteria produces botulism. Vacuum or dry nitrogen are great for storing dry things. Moist things, not so much.

      @Abion47 6 років тому +13

      Pop Rocks work by trapping carbon dioxide inside bubbles within the candy at high pressure. As the candy dissolves in your mouth, the gas is released, and that's what causes the pop. Liquid nitrogen would not dissolve the candy, so it wouldn't pop. The only thing that might happen is that the candy would snap freeze, causing it to crack apart from the contracting pressures and release the gas that way, but then it still wouldn't pop because the gas is contracting right along with the candy itself, so the pressure difference between the gas and the air would be much smaller.

      When you stir the mug you will get the same result. When you pour coffee into a mug or stir it, you incorperate air into the coffee. The air reduces the speed of sound through the fluid, so it has a lower pitch. As the air escapes, the speed of sound in the fluid increases and the pitch increases.

    @Graxster 6 років тому +177

    At 7:26 "It's possible we haven't kept a perfect vacuum on all of these". You're correct in that statement. The drilling/rubber seal idea was unnecessary. It would have been easier and simpler if you just placed the mason jar lids on the jars and put them in the vacuum chamber (without the bands). The pressure inside the mason jar would have lifted the lid enough to allow the vacuum to draw the air out. When the vacuum pump was turned off, the rubber on the lid would have sealed the jar. Then you could place the screw bands on. Check out a FoodSaver wide mouth jar sealer, which works on the same principle.
    TLDR: The mason jar lid works on the same exact principle as the rubber + electrical tape, and works better.

    • @vedritmathias9193

Second of all, mold is a fungi, not a bacteria.

    You don't understand how canning jars work. You don't need to drill a hole in the lid! The lid is two pieces for a reason. Don't tighten the outer ring, the vacuum pulls the lid open and draws the gasses out (and water), then the atmospheric pressure presses the lid down sealing the vacuum inside.

To have them work correctly, sterlize them, place food inside them without cross contaminating food. Put on inner lid cover, then screw on ring clamp loosely. Place in vacuum chamber, evacuate air. Remove jar from vacuum chamber. Partial vacuum in jar will hold inner lid cover sealed, then screw down ring clamp tightly. Voila.

      This is why for the most part foods with an expiration date are given a shelf-life based on their water content. The more water they have, the faster they will go bad. An apple has a shorter shelf life than a potato, which in turn has a shorter shelf life than something like hard noodles. (Interestingly enough, for the purposes of this classification, ice has a water content level of 0%, because it's not water - it's ice. This is why frozen foods last longer, because freezing them lowers/eliminates their water content.)

    ........mold is absolutely amazing. There are mold spores on basically everything...all the time. They just need the right conditions to grow. And apparently they don't even need air (or at least extremely little air) to grow. I honestly thought the bread in the vacuum would not grow mold due to the lack of an atmosphere. Weird.

    • @pietrayday9915
      @pietrayday9915 6 років тому +6

      Mold is a fungus, and does "breathe" air (more precisely, the oxygen in the air) - I suspected that going in. Like you, though, I predicted that mold wouldn't grow in what's passing for a vacuum here, and was surprised to see that mold seemed to have no problems growing in near-vacuum conditions. I'm guessing there's just enough oxygen left in the near-vacuum - and just enough oxygen in the apples and bread and the moisture in them - to keep those molds going, but I would have still bet against them. They really are, as you say, amazing organisms!
      One has to suspect that fungi will grow pretty well in space (and I understand that molds and other fungi are problems inside our space stations!) I wonder how well more organized fungi grow in microgravity conditions, and how well they survive the radiation of space?

    @永恒-i1p 6 років тому +137

    Keeping something vacuum is actually very challenging, especially over such a long period. What you should do is to vacuum these jars EVERY DAY. Otherwise they might be little oxygen for the first few hours/days, but after that they will be no difference between the vacuum jars and non-vacuum jars. What's worse, unlike human beings, bacteria requires very little oxygen, so those vacuum jars prevented food from drying out (because water vapor can't go out), yet it has enough oxygen for bacteria, so it's oxygen + moisture, which is even worse then just oxygen but dry food. That's why you get worse results from apple and bread.

    Nice experiment, thanks! You should do this test again (especially with different fruits) but put dry ice in the bottom of the jar before you vacuum out the air! Then see how carbonated it will be and /or how long the food will last.

    vacuum dehydrating IS a way to store dry goods. If you freeze the food first, you can freeze dry it with this setup.
