Storage study data for paneer in controlled RH and Temperature environment

The dataset shows a data log generated by a self assembled open source low-cost, microcontroller-based device to precisely monitor and control storage conditions. Utilizing open-source hardware and software (Arduino), the device incorporates a data acquisition system for continuous monitoring of temperature and humidity. The successful continuous operation of the system for thirteen days demonstrates its reliability for various applications, including moisture sorption isotherms, dehydration kinetics, and other storage stability studies. This system enables precise control of storage conditions, allowing for the determination of optimal storage parameters (7±1.7°C and 37±1.7%RH) for nine days of safe paneer storage. This data set has been analyzed, and a detailed research paper has been published.
