2008 Keith Farrer Award of Merit

Dr Allan Bremner has been named the 2008 winner of the Australian Institute of Food Science and Technology (AIFST) Keith Farrer Award of Merit. The Keith Farrer Award of Merit is the AIFST’s most prestigious award bestowed on its members. It is given for outstanding achievements in contributions to food science and technology in the wide areas of research, industry and education and recognises offerings that further the aims and objectives of the Institute.

Allan’s contribution to the Australian and international food industry, food science community and the AIFST spans several decades and is particularly focused on seafood - quality, freshness, shelf life and aquaculture harvesting but perhaps his greatest contribution is the development of what is now known as the Quality Index Method (QIM) that evaluates current storage life and estimates remaining shelf-life. QIM has been adopted in industry and at auctions, is recognised by the EU and is now the standard reference method in research and commerce throughout Europe.
