Physicochemical and nutritional characteristics of blueberry juice after high pressure processing
2013
Abstract This study was carried out to investigate the impact of high pressure processing (HPP) at different pressure (200, 400 and 600 MPa) and treatment times (5, 9 and 15 min) on ascorbic acid, total phenolics, anthocyanin stability and total antioxidant capacity, were also studied at different physicochemical parameters such as pH, °Brix and color. HPP treatments resulted in more than 92% vitamin C retention at all treatment intensities. On the other hand, total phenolic content in the juice was increased, mainly after HPP at 200 MPa for all treatment times. The total and monomeric anthocyanin were similar or higher than the value estimated for the fresh juice being maximum at 400 MPa/1…
Thermal and high-pressure stability of purified polygalacturonase and pectinmethylesterase from four different tomato processing varieties
2006
Abstract Polygalacturonase (PG) and pectinmethylesterase (PME) were extracted and purified from four tomato varieties (Galeon, Malpica, Perfectpeel and Soto) used in the processing industry. The processing stability (thermal and high pressure) of PG and PME from the four varieties was analyzed, and they all showed the same behavior. PG was present in two isoforms, PG1 (inactivated at 90 °C, 5 min) and PG2 (inactivated at 65 °C, 5 min). In contrast, PG1s and PG2s showed the same pressure stability, both can be inactivated at room temperature in the pressure range of 300–500 MPa. On the other hand, purified PMEs could be thermally inactivated (5 min, 70 °C) but 50% of its activity remained af…
Assessment of Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes level in ready-to-cook poultry meat: Effect of various high pressure treatments and potassium lac…
2014
International audience; The objective of this study was to develop a probabilistic model in order to determine the contamination level of Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-cook poultry meat, after a high pressure (HP) treatment. The model included four steps: i) Reception of raw meat materials, mincing and mixing meat, ii) Partitioning and packaging into 200-g modified atmosphere packs, iii) High pressure treatment of the meat, and iv) Storage in chilled conditions until the end of the shelf-life. The model excluded the cooking step and consumption at consumer's home as cooking practices and heating times are highly variable. The initial contamination level of Salmonella and…
The role of water in the impact of high pressure on the myrosinase activity and glucosinolate content in seedlings from Brussels sprouts
2019
Abstract In this study, it was shown that the amount of available water was found to influence the high pressure processing (HPP) effect on both myrosinase activity and total glucosinolate concentration in Brussels sprouts seedlings. Brussels sprouts seedlings with different water content (wc = 4.8–89.4%) and water activity (aw = 0.17–0.97) were pressurized at selected pressures between 200 and 800 MPa (5 °C and 3 min), thereby affecting pressure-induced enzyme denaturation, molecular diffusion, and cell permeability differently. The myrosinase activity and intact glucosinolate content in the dry seedlings (wc Industrial relevance High pressure processing (HPP) is increasingly applied in t…
Effect of extrusion on the anti-nutritional factors of food products: An overview
2017
International audience; Edible plant seeds such as cereals, legumes and nuts contain substantial amounts of nutrients including proteins, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, and dietary fibers. However, the bioavailability of these nutrients in humans or animals is relatively low, particularly when they are consumed in their unprocessed or raw form. One of the major factors that contribute to a lower nutritional value of legumes and cereals is the presence of naturally-occurring anti-nutritional factors (ANFs, e.g. phytate, tannins and enzyme inhibitors) that indirectly decreasing the bioavailability status of minerals. Fortunately, these ANFs can be modified or reduced through different pro…
The influence of high pressure processing on antimutagenic activities of fruit and vegetable juices
1997
Abstract In model experiments using the Salmonella/reversion assay (Ames test) and the carcinogen 2-amino-3-methyl-imidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ), antimutagenic activities against IQ had been detected in about 70% of 62 fruit and vegetable species [Edenharder, Kurz, John, Burgard and Seeger (1994) Fd Chem. Toxic. 32, 443–459]. However, thermal stability of the antimutagenic factors varied considerably. As hydrostatic pressure is an alternative to heat in food processing and preservation, homogenates of 14 fruit and vegetable species were exposed to different pressures and temperatures. According to the response of the antimutagenic potential, three groups of produce could be identified: (a) m…
High pressure processing of food-grade emulsion systems: Antimicrobial activity, and effect on the physicochemical properties
2019
Abstract The use of high pressure processing (HPP) for development of stable emulsion-based delivery systems has been recently increased. Under adequate conditions, application of high pressures modifies the functionality of protein and polysaccharide molecules and significantly promotes the emulsifying activities. Application of high pressures also modulates the emulsion microstructure without any destabilization and gelation of protein molecules. The lipid oxidation in HPP-treated emulsions can be accelerated, particularly with higher pressure levels, while the HPP utilization on emulsions in acidic conditions can highly inhibit the growth of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. In thi…
High pressure processing of fruit juice mixture sweetened with Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni: Optimal retention of physical and nutritional quality
2013
Abstract The impact of high pressure processing (HPP) technology on physicochemical properties (color, browning index, turbidity index), bioactive compounds (ascorbic acid, total phenolic compounds, total anthocyanins, total carotenoids) and antioxidant capacity of a fruit juice mixture (papaya (32.5%, v/v), mango (10%, v/v) and orange (7.5%, v/v)) sweetened with Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni at different percentages was studied. The experimental design comprised a response surface methodology according to a central composite face-centered design. The variable ranges were 300–500 MPa (pressure), 5–15 min (time), 0–2.5% Stevia percentage. This design was used to determine the optimal high pressu…
Comparative effect of supercritical carbon dioxide and high pressure processing on structural changes and activity loss of oxidoreductive enzymes
2019
Abstract Due to the CO2 specific characteristics, it has been used as supercritical (Sc) fluid for several applications, including enzyme inactivation. The influence of Sc-CO2 (10–65 MPa/10–30 min/35–65 °C) on mushroom polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and horseradish peroxidase (POD) was evaluated and the results were compared with those found using high pressure processing (HPP) (200–900 MPa/5–45 °C/1–15 min). The free ion concentration was also studied to compare the enzymatic activity and changes in electrical conductivity. Additionally both enzymes, untreated or treated using either Sc-CO2 or HPP, were used as additives in the CuCl2 crystallization method. The resulting additive-specific CuCl2 …
