High-pressure processing applied to sliced dry-cured Iberian loin: Effect of category, company, and storage temperature.

The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-pressure processing (HPP) and storage temperature on the microbial counts, the instrumental color, and the oxidation stability of sliced dry-cured Iberian loin from two categories and two leading companies. 600 MPa for 8 min was sufficient to decrease all the microbial counts without affecting the color and the oxidation status, the effect being modulated by the loin category and company, whose effect on those variables was marked. However, the subsequent 90-day storage softened the initial effect of HPP on microorganisms and allowed a significant effect of HPP to develop on color and oxidation.

Selenium Protects ARPE-19 and ACBRI 181 Cells against High Glucose-Induced Oxidative Stress.

Immunological components and antioxidant activity in human milk processed by different high pressure-thermal treatments at low initial temperature and flash holding times.

The effect of high pressure thermal (HPT) processing on the immunoglobulin (IgM, IgA and IgG), and cytokine content (IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α), and antioxidant activity of human milk was analyzed after the application of different treatments between 200, and 800 MPa at low initial temperatures (between -15, and 50 °C) and for 1 s (flash treatments).
