THERMAL AND NONTHERMAL PROCESSING OF APPLE CIDER: STORAGE QUALITY UNDER EQUIVALENT PROCESS CONDITIONS

ABSTRACT Three processing techniques: heat, pulsed electric field (PEF) and ultraviolet (UV) light were optimized to achieve a similar 6 log reduction of inoculated Escherichia coli K12 in apple cider. Microbial populations (total aerobic and yeast and mold), sensory, color and physical properties (...

Zusammenfassung:ABSTRACT Three processing techniques: heat, pulsed electric field (PEF) and ultraviolet (UV) light were optimized to achieve a similar 6 log reduction of inoculated Escherichia coli K12 in apple cider. Microbial populations (total aerobic and yeast and mold), sensory, color and physical properties (pH and°Brix) of processed apple cider were investigated during 4‐week storage at 4C. PEF and thermally processed cider maintained good microbial quality during 4 weeks of storage while UV‐treated cider showed a significant (P
