Interest in high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) applications on milk and dairy products has recently increased as HHP offers a new technology for food preservation to the food industry. Although HHP-induced microbial destruction, rennet or acid coagulation of milk and increase in cheese yield has been reported, the actual effect of HHP application on milk constituents still remains to be unexplained. Therefore, we have analyzed the effect of HHP on physicochemical and biochemical properties such as turbidity, pH and especially protein micelle surface hydrophobicity of milk proteins. To serve for this purpose, milk samples with different fat contents were pressurized from 110 to 440 MPa at 25 degrees C for 10 and 20 min. Turbidity decreased with pressure increase and there was a slight change in pH. In order to measure the extent of exposure of hydrophobic groups of proteins to HHP, the method described by Bonomi et al. [1], based on use of a fluorescent probe, was utilized. In the light of the results obtained, it can be concluded that HHP has an effect on non-covalent interactions and especially hydrophobic bonds in milk. As the pressure is increased from 110 to 440 MPa, the micelles possibly decompose into sub-micelles and the embedded hydrophobic areas inside these micelles re-position in such a way that they can readily interfere with the fluorescent marker, ANS. These results may lead to practical applications of HHP treatment in the dairy industry to produce microbiologically safe, minimally processed products with high nutritional and sensory quality and novel texture.

Effect of high hydrostatic pressure and heat treatment on antimicrobial protein stability, shelf-life, and rheological characteristics of donkey milk Köker, Alperen; Alpas, Hami; Öztürkoğlu-Budak, Şebnem; Department of Food Engineering (2021-11) Donkey milk has been gaining popularity due to its beneficial properties and similarity to human milk, however, since heat treatment lead to phase seperation and nutritional losses, it is consumed raw, which may cause health risks and limit its shelf life. High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is a non-thermal food processing technique in which microbial inactivation can be obtained with minimum effects on fresh like properties of food product. This study aimed to investigate the effects of HHP, and heat treatmen...
Effect of high hydrostatic pressure on background microflora and furan formation in fruit pur,e based baby foods KULTUR, Gulcin; MISRA, N. N.; BARBA, Francisco J.; KOUBAA, Mohamed; GÖKMEN, VURAL; Alpas, Hami (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-03-01) The baby foods industry is currently seeking technologies to pasteurize products without formation of processing contaminants such as furan. This work demonstrates the applicability of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) as a non-thermal decontamination intervention for fruit pur,e based baby foods. HHP processing was evaluated at 200, 300, and 400 MPa pressures, for 5, 10 and 15 min of treatment times at 25, 35 and 45 A degrees C. HHP application at 400 MPa, 45 A degrees C for 15 min ensured complete inactivat...
EFFECT OF HIGH HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE (HHP) ON THE FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF PEA PROTEIN ISOLATE (PPI) Kalaycı, Cennet Asuhan; Alpas, Hami; Öztop, Halil Mecit; Department of Food Engineering (2021-9-08) Pea proteins as plant-based proteins have attracted much interest and are preferred in the food industry due to their low allergenicity, high availability, high nutritional value, and low price in recent years. Thus, they are considered a good replacer for commonly used animal-based protein ingredients; however, better functional properties are required for the industry. The aim of this work was to investigate the influences of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on the functional properties of pea protein isol...
Effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on cellulose hydrolysis and cellulase activity, and its use for peanut hulls hydrolysis Öztürk, Eylül; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2019) High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) technique has potential for food preservation purposes and HHP treatment can inactivate enzymes and/or increase their activity. Avicel, the commercial name of microcrystalline cellulose, is a commonly used substrate to observe the activity of cellulase. Cellulase activity is a crucial parameter for the production of alternative renewable fuels. Celluclast 1.5L, a mixture of enzymes, are used for the hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicellulose containing substances. Peanut hull ...
Effect of high hydrostatic pressure on the functional properties of soy protein isolate Zengin, Kübra; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2022-2-11) Soy protein is a low-cost additive with high biological value, unique functional properties, and beneficial effects on health, and it is widely used in the food industry as an important ingredient. When the health and functional properties of soy protein are considered altogether, there are several benefits for consuming and using it in foods. High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is a non-thermal novel processing technology that has been generally used to destroys vegetative cells, microorganisms and enzymes. Ad...
