High pressure processing (HPP) improved safety and quality of emerging aronia berry juice: a pilot scale shelf-life study
JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY-MYSORE(2021)
Abstract
The effect of high pressure processing (HPP, 600 MPa, 5 min) and thermal treatment (85 °C, 15 min) on aronia berry juice in a pilot scale was studied. The maximal shelf-life of treated samples at room temperature (RT, approximately 25 °C) or refrigerated storage (RS, 4 °C) was also investigated. Microbial counts, physicochemical properties, enzymes activities, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activities of these juices were determined and compared. Results indicated that HPP treatment improved the microbial shelf-life of the aronia juice by at least 10-times at RT and 5-times at RS. Although thermal treatment was equally effective in extending the shelf-life, the high temperature resulted in a quicker degradation of polyphenols in aronia juice, which was decreased by 36.6% during RT storage (5 weeks) and 43.3% at RS storage (24 weeks). Therefore, HPP was more efficient in maintaining the safety and quality of aronia juice. The study also indicated HPP treated aronia juice could be stored at RT for at least one month that could be of benefit to the non-cold chain process which is targeting for a low-energy input while still retaining a minimal effect on the nutritional properties of food products.
