“…The total colour change (∆E) was calculated from the L*, a*, and b* parameters according to Equation (1), where L 0 , a 0 and b 0 represent the values of the control (untreated) sample or values before HVED treatment, and L, a, and b are the values thereafter [ 33 ]. …”

“…This proves the positive effect of blanching on colour preservation. According to Cserhalmi (33), results were expressed as a relationship between ∆E and the human perception of colour. The total colour change (∆E) was "not noticeable" (0-0.5) for NBP 2, "noticeable" (1.5-3) for NBP 1, and "well visible" (3-6) for the NP, NSP and NPA samples.…”

Although neglected as an industrial raw material, rose hip has been important for both nutritional and medical purposes for centuries. The main goal of this study was to propose a rapid and inexpensive non-thermal technique such as high voltage electrical discharge (HVED) to preserve valuable rose hip bioactive compounds, towards the development of high-quality products, including low-calorie products. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of HVED on the physicochemical properties and the microbiological safety of rose hip nectar formulations and, for comparison, on a pasteurised sample. Physicochemical analysis proved that rose hip pulp and the prepared nectars were valuable sources of polyphenols and ascorbic acid with high antioxidant activity. The HVED technique had minimal effects on the quality characteristics of the nectars under the different process conditions (50, 100 Hz; 10, 15, 20 min). In addition, the pasteurised nectar showed the greatest loss of ascorbic acid (54%) and phenolic compounds (40%). The microbiological quality of nectars was examined immediately after preparation/treatment and after 6 and 12 days of storage at 4 °C. In addition to the pasteurised sample, HVED-treated rose hip nectar prepared from microwave-blanched puree with extended shelf life had satisfactory microbiological safety after storage.

“…Different scientific papers and reviews (Knorr et al 1994;Pothakamury et al 1996;Raso et al 2000) deal with the effect of PEF on microorganisms. The inactivation of S. cerevisiae, E. coli, Listeria monocytogenes, L. innocua, S. aureus, Salmonella spp., Bacillus subtilis and B. cereus has been extensively studied (Cserhalmi 2006).…”
Pasteurisation of fruit juices is normally carried out by thermal means. Heat treatment is an efficient technology for pasteurisation, but may also cause impairment of nutritive and sensory attributes. High-voltage pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment is a promising nonthermal processing method for pasteurisation of liquid foods. Sensory quality of fruit juices is important for consumers. PEF lends itself to be employed as an alternative to produce fruit juices of high quality and safe for consumption, and yet its practical application has been really limited. This paper reviews research carried out recently about the potential use of PEF to different fruit juices, aimed at employing the technology at industrial scale in order to search for wider commercialisation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
