Optimization of pulsed electric field parameters for mango nectar processing using response surface methodology

ثبت نشده
چکیده

Ready to Drink (RTD) mango nectar was subjected to pulsed electric fields (PEF) processing. The effect of process parameters including pulse frequency (70-120 Hz) and pulse width (1524 μs) on carotenes, total plate count, coliforms, yeast and moulds and over all acceptability was studied using a response surface methodology. Mango nectar exhibited high retention of carotene content at higher frequencies and pulse widths as compared to lower levels. However, severe PEF treatments reduced carotene content. Maximum inactivation of native micro flora (4.1 log CFU/ml), retention of carotene content (2100 μg/100 ml) and over all acceptability (8.3) scores were obtained when PEF treatments were set up to 38.0 kV/cm for 24 μs using bipolar pulses at 120 Hz.

Effect of pulsed electric field and pasteurisation treatments on the rheological properties of mango nectar (Mangifera indica)

The rheological behaviour of pulsed electric field (PEF) processed and thermally pasteurised mango nectar (Mangifera indica) was evaluated using controlled stress rheometer. The mango nectar was subjected to pulsed electric field (PEF) as well as thermal processing. The rheological parameter shear stress was measured up to the shear rate of 750 s -1 using co-axial cylinder attachment at wide ra...

Pulsed electric field and combination processing of mango nectar: effect on volatile compounds and HMF formation

Mango nectar is a commercially familiar and preferred product. The traditional processing of mango nectar has been by thermal processing which resulted in the alteration of the flavour of the product due to the effect of high temperature. The thermal processing of the nectar also resulted in the production of byproducts of non-enzymatic browning such as 5hydroxy methyl furfural (HMF). These pro...
