Over small changes in temperature, if the right semiconductor is used, the resistance of the material is linearly proportional to the temperature. There are many different semiconducting thermistors with a range from about 0.01 kelvin to 2,000 kelvins (â273.14 Â°C to 1,700 Â°C).
If you do feel the need to put them in the fridge, they can tolerate up to 3 days of cold storage if they are used soon as they are removed from the refrigerator. Seems that cucumbers are susceptible to cold injury if held more than 3 days at temperatures lower than 50F/10C. Signs of cold injury are wateriness, pitting on the outside and accelerated decay. Another factoid: Cucumbers are sensitive to ethylene gas, which is put off by some ripening fruits and vegetables.
Refrigerate perishable foods within two hours. Cold temperatures slow the growth of illness causing bacteria. So itâs important to chill food promptly and properly. Hereâs how: Pack your refrigerator with care. To properly chill food (and slow bacteria growth), cold air must be allowed to circulate in your fridge.
