Inactivation of peroxidase and lipoxygenase in carrots, green beans, and green peas by combination of high hydrostatic pressure and mild heat treatment

2006-12-01
The efficiency of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) with the combination of mild heat treatment on peroxidase (POD) and lipoxygenase (LOX) inactivation in carrots, green beans, and green peas was investigated. In the first part of the study, the samples were pressurized under 250-450 MPa at 20-50 degrees C for 15-60 min. In the second part, two steps treatments were performed as water blanching at 40-70 degrees C for 15 and 30 min after pressurization at 250 MPa and 20 degrees C for 15-60 min. Carrot POD was decreased to 16% residual activity within the first 30 min at a treatment condition of 350 MPa and 20 degrees C and then it decreased to 9% at 60 min. When the carrots were water blanched at 50 degrees C for 30 min after HHP treatment of 250 MPa at 20 degrees C for 15 min, 13% residual POD activity was obtained. For green beans, the most effective results were obtained by two steps treatment and approximately 25% residual POD activity was obtained by water blanching at 50 degrees C for 15 min after pressurization at 250 MPa and 20 degrees C for 60 min. An effective inactivation of POD in green peas was not obtained. For carrots, LOX activity could not be measured due to very low LOX activity or the presence of strong antioxidants such as carotenoids. After pressurization at 250 MPa and 20 degrees C for 15 or 30 min, water blanching at 60 degrees C for 30 min provided 2-3% residual LOX activity in green beans. The treatment of 250 MPa for 30 min and then water blanching at 50 degrees C for 30 min provided 70% LOX inactivation in green peas.

In this study, the efficiency of high-pressure treatment (HHP, 250 - 450 MPa) with the combination of heat treatment (20 - 70oC) on peroxidase (POD) and lipoxygenase (LOX) inactivation in green beans, green peas and carrots was investigated for blanching purposes. Two steps treatments were also performed by pressurization at 250 MPa at 20°C for 15- 60 min and then by water blanching at 40-70°C. For green beans, 25 % residual activity was obtained by water blanching at 50°C for 15 min after the pressurizatio...
Combined effect of high hydrostatic pressure treatment and hydrogen peroxide on Salmonella Enteritidis in liquid whole egg
Isiker, G; Gültekin, Güzin Candan; Bayındırlı, Alev (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2003-09-01)
The effects of high hydrostatic pressure treatment (HHP) of 250, 350, 450 MPa and hydrogen peroxide additions at different concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1% in liquid whole egg following high hydrostatic pressure treatment at 250 MPa at 20degreesC on Salmonella Enteritidis PT4 in liquid whole egg were investigated. At 20degreesC for 5 min treatment, 56.63 and 49.38% injury were determined for the treatment pressures of 250 and 350 MPa, respectively. Injury was not detected and total destruction of Salmonella E...
Optimization of microwave frying of osmotically dehydrated potato slices by using response surface methodology
Öztop, Halil Mecit; Şahin, Serpil; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-04-01)
Microwave frying of osmotically dehydrated potatoes was optimized by using response surface methodology. Osmotic dehydration was applied prior to microwave frying in order to reduce oil uptake and to evaluate the effect of osmotic dehydration on quality of microwave fried potatoes. Moisture content, oil content, hardness and color of the fried potatoes were used as quality parameters. Microwave power level (400, 550, 700 W), frying time (1.5, 2.0, 2.5 min) and osmotic dehydration time (15, 30, 45 min) were ...
Functional properties of microwave-treated wheat gluten
Yalcin, Erkan; Sakiyan, Ozge; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Celik, Sueda; KÖKSEL, HAMİT (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2008-09-01)
In this study, the effects of microwave treatments on solubility, foaming and emulsifying properties of gluten were investigated. The solubility of microwave-heated gluten proteins gradually decreased as the treatment time increased, at all power levels applied. The highest solubility values were obtained for gluten samples microwave treated at 50% power level. The lowest emulsifying capacity values were obtained with the samples heated at 100% power level at all treatment times. The emulsifying stability v...
Optimization of bread baking in a halogen lamp-microwave combination oven by response surface methodology
Demirekler, P; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-09-01)
The main objective of this study was to optimize the baking conditions of bread in a halogen lamp-microwave combination oven. Independent variables were the baking time (4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, and 6 min), the power of the microwaves (20, 30, 40, 50, and 60%), and the power of the upper and lower halogen lamps (40, 50, 60, 70, and 80%). The quality parameters measured were the weight loss, the color, the specific volume, the porosity, and the texture profile of the breads. For the optimization, the response surface...
