“…Shahbaz et al () also reported, compared with the untreated and nonthermally treated samples, heat‐treated Dongchimi (watery radish kimchi) samples were given the least preference scores both after the treatment and 5 days of storage. Therefore, recent studies focused on nonthermal processing methods, such as ultraviolet treatment, high hydrostatic pressure, pulsed electric fields, ultrasonication for the preservation of fruit, and vegetable juices (Akdemir Evrendilek, Tok, Soylu, & Soylu, ; Scolari, Zacconi, Busconi, & Lambri, ; Dinçer & Topuz, ; Kaya & Unluturk, ). Preservation of food by ultraviolet (UV) treatment depends on the ability of UV‐C light (253.7 nm) to penetrate through the cell wall of pathogens, then blocking DNA transcription and replication due to the formation of thymine dimers that hindered growing and multiplying of the cell (Bhullar et al, ; Unluturk, Atilgan, Handan Baysal, & Tari, ).…”
