Pulsed Electric Field Processing: An Emerging Technology for Food Preservation

Pulsed Electric Field Processing in Food Technology

Pulsed electric field (PEF) processing is a emerging method of food preservation that uses short bursts of electricity for microbial inactivation (cell-lysis) and causes minimal or no detrimental effect on food quality attributes. PEF can be used for processing liquid and semiliquid food products.

Pulsed Electric Field Technology in Food Preservation: A Review

Traditional food processing approaches like cooking, freezing, refrigeration and blanching are commonly known methods and are generally used by the people in their homes. However, in the food processing industries these techniques are combined with other processing operations with the help of several contemporary process-technology plants by using different technical prospects that are not comm...

Pulsed light technology: a novel method for food preservation

With the increase in consumer awareness, demand for minimally processed foods and ecofriendliness, various technologies were developed for food processing and preservation. The conventional thermal food preservation and processing techniques appears to have the shortcoming of adversely affecting the food quality, organoleptic properties and nutrients. However, many non-thermal food preservation...
