= Mean kinetic temperature
{wiki=Mean_kinetic_temperature}
Mean Kinetic Temperature (MKT) is an average temperature used in medicine and food science to describe the effect of temperature on the stability of a substance over time, particularly when that substance is subject to temperature fluctuations. It provides a single temperature value that reflects the cumulative thermal history of a product based on the time it has spent at various temperatures. MKT is particularly useful for assessing the stability of pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and perishable food items.
