The entropy weight method (EWM) was developed and used to integrate multiple quality indexes of pork to generate a comprehensive measure of quality. The Arrhenius equation and chemical kinetic reaction were used to fit and generate the shelf life prediction model. The pork was stored at the temperatures of 7 °:C, 4 °:C, 1 °:C and &minus:1 °:C. Quality indexes, such as drip loss, color, shear force, pH, TAC, TVB-N and TBARS were measured. The results show that low temperatures effectively delay microbial growth and lipid oxidation. The regression coefficients (R2) for the comprehensive scores at each temperature were greater than 0.973 and the activation energy Ea was 9.7354 ×: 104 kJ mol&minus:1. The predicted shelf life of pork stored at 7 °:C, 4 °:C, 1 °:C and &minus:1 °:C was 4.35 d, 6.85 d, 10.88 d and 14.90 d, respectively. In conclusion, EWM is an effective method to predict the shelf life of chilled/supercooled pork.
