Effects of ohmic and conventional heating on anthocyanin degradation during theprocessing of blueberry pulp
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present work evaluates the anthocyanin degradation in blueberry pulp after thermal treatment using ohmic and conventional heating. The ohmic heating technology was studied using a rotatable central composite design, and the variables studied were voltage and solids content. The anthocyanin content of the samples was determined using HPLC. The results show that degradation increased with both increasing voltage and increasing solids content. The comparison between ohmic and conventional heating showed that when lower voltage levels were used, the percentage of degradation was lower or similar to those obtained during conventional heating. However, for high electric fields, the pulp processed using ohmic heating exhibited higher anthocyanin degradation. 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

An increase of electrical conductivity with field strength was obvi...
متن کاملEffects of Power Ultrasound on Stability of Cyanidin-3-glucoside Obtained from Blueberry.
Power ultrasound (US) could potentially be used in the food industry in the future. However, the extent of anthocyanin degradation by US requires investigation. Cyanidin-3-glucoside (Cy-3-glu) obtained from blueberry extracts was used as research material to investigate the effect of power ultrasound on food processing of anthocyanin-rich raw materials. The effects of ultrasonic waves on the st...
متن کاملStability and sensory shelf life of orange juice pasteurized by continuous ohmic heating.
Electrical heating of food products provides rapid and uniform heating, resulting in less thermal damage to the product. The objective of this research was to examine the effects of ohmic heating on the stability of orange juice with comparison to conventional pasteurization. During storage at 4 degrees C, degradation curves of ascorbic acid followed a linear decrease pattern in both ohmic-heat...
