Influence of ultra‐high pressure homogenisation on physicochemical and sensorial properties of orange juice in comparison with conventional thermal processing

Summary The effect of different ultra‐high pressure homogenisation (UHPH) treatments on physicochemical and sensorial properties of orange juice was studied in comparison with thermal pasteurisation (90 °C, 1 min). UHPH treatments consisted on combinations of two inlet temperatures (10 or 20 °C) and...

Description
Summary:Summary The effect of different ultra‐high pressure homogenisation (UHPH) treatments on physicochemical and sensorial properties of orange juice was studied in comparison with thermal pasteurisation (90 °C, 1 min). UHPH treatments consisted on combinations of two inlet temperatures (10 or 20 °C) and three pressures (100, 200 and 300 MPa). Effect of treatments was assessed on general quality parameters (colour, pH, °Brix, titratable acidity, reducing sugars and non‐enzymatic browning index), particle size distribution and cloud stability. None of the UHPH treatments caused significant differences in the °Brix, reducing sugars, pH and non‐enzymatic browning index with respect of fresh or pasteurised juice. Only titratable acidity was significantly lower when inlet temperature of UHPH treatments was 20 °C. UHPH treatments significantly reduced the particle size and in consequence the cloudiness and the total colour value (∆E*) increased. The overall consumer acceptability of UHPH and pasteurised juices was similar. UHPH improves the appearance of orange juice by decreasing the size of the particles, resulting in high stability and turbidity, both characteristics desired in orange juice.
