High hydrostatic pressure treatment and storage of carrot and tomato juices: Antioxidant activity and microbial safety

2007-04-15
The application of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) (250 MPa, 35 degrees C for 15 min) and thermal treatment (80 degrees C for 1 min) reduced the microbial load of carrot and tomato juices to undetectable levels. Different combinations of HHP did not cause a significant change in the ascorbic acid content of either juice (P > 0.05). Both heat treatments (60 degrees C for 5-15 min and 80 degrees C for 1 min) resulted in a significant loss (P < 0.05) in the free-radical scavenging activity as compared to untreated samples. HHP-treated juices showed a small loss of antioxidants (below 10%) during storage. The ascorbic acid content of pressurized tomato and carrot juices remained over 70 and 45% after 30 days of storage, respectively. However, heat treatment caused a rapid decrease to 16-20%. Colour changes were minor (Delta E = 10) for pressurised juices but for heat-pasteurised samples it was more intense and higher as a result of insufficient antioxidant activity. HHP treatment (250 MPa, 35 degrees C for 15 min) led to a better product with regard to anti-radical scavenging capacity, ascorbic acid content and sensory properties (colour, pH) of the tomato and carrot juices compared to conventional pasteurisation. Therefore, HHP can be recommended not only for industrial production but also for safe storage of fresh juices, such as tomato and carrot, even at elevated storage temperatures (25 degrees C).

High hydrostatic pressure assisted extraction of pectin from sugar beet pulp
Kaya, Burcu; Okur, İlhami; Alpas, Hami; Oztop, Mecit Halil (2021-05-01)
This study aimed to investigate the effect of high hydrostatic pressure assisted extraction (HHPE) (250, 350 and 450 MPa at 40 degrees C for 5 min with/without acid addition) of pectin from sugar beet pulp and compare its properties with pectin obtained from conventional extraction (CE). Degree of esterification (DE), galacturonic acid (Gal-A) content, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxometry experiments were performed on the obtained pectin powder. HHP...
High hydrostatic pressure-assisted extraction of lipids from Lipomyces starkeyi biomass
Tuhanioglu, Arda; Alpas, Hami; Çekmecelioğlu, Deniz (2022-10-01)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) as a novel approach for yeast cell disruption and lipid extraction from Lipomyces starkeyi DSM 70295 grown in glucose medium (40 g/L and C/N:55/1) at initial pH of 5.0, 25 degrees C, and 130 rpm for 8 days. HHP extraction conditions including pressure, time, and temperature were optimized by response surface methodology. The high speed homogenizer-assisted extraction (HSH) was also used for comparison. The biomass subject...
Compression heating of selected pressure transmitting fluids and liquid foods during high hydrostatic pressure treatment
BUZRUL, Sencer; Alpas, Hami; LARGETEAU, Alain; BOZOGLU, Faruk; DEMAZEAU, Gerard (2008-04-01)
Three pressure transmitting fluids (water, ethylene glycol, and ethanol) and three liquid foods (orange juice, whole, and skim milk) were pressurized at 100-400 MPa and at 5, 20 and 35 degrees C, using different compression rates (100, 200, and 300 MPa/min) to evaluate the adiabatic heating phenomena during high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) processing. A pressure vessel (3 L volume) in which liquid foods could be introduced directly was used to demonstrate the compression heating phenomena in large-scale comm...
High-Pressure-Assisted Extraction of Phenolic Compounds from Olive Leaves: optimization and Comparison with Conventional Extraction
Okur, İlhami; Namlı, Serap; Öztop, Halil Mecit; Alpas, Hami (2023-01-20)
The scope of the study was to optimize high-pressure-assisted extraction (HPAE) conditions for the extraction of phenolic compounds from olive leaves and to compare the optimum HPAE conditions with conventional extraction (CE) (at 50 °C for 30 min). In this regard, different treatment pressure levels (300-500 MPa), time (5-15 min), and solid-to-solvent ratios (0.1-0.3 w/v) were used to optimize the total phenolic content (TPC) and oleuropein content by using the Box-Behnken design. According to the results,...
Effects of high hydrostatic pressure on microflora and some quality attributes of grape juice
MERT, Mecnun; BUZRUL, Sencer; Alpas, Hami (2013-03-01)
Red and white grape juices were treated with high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) at three different pressures, temperature and time values to investigate the effects of HHP on natural microflora and some quality attributes of the juices. Increased pressure, temperature and time showed significant effect on the microbial reduction and no microbial growth were observed in HHP-treated grape juices up to 90 days. HHP had little or no effect on pH and color of the juices. Although 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) forma...
