Dynamic Thermal Treatments in Green Coconut Water Induce Dynamic Stress Adaptation of That Increases Its Thermal Resistance.

The global coconut water market is projected to grow in the upcoming years, attributed to its numerous health benefits. However, due to its susceptibility to microbial contamination and the limitations of non-thermal decontamination methods, thermal treatments remain the primary approach to ensure the shelf-life stability and the microbiological safety of the product. In this study, the thermal inactivation of , a surrogate, was evaluated in coconut water and in tryptone soy broth (TSB) under both isothermal (50-60 °C) and dynamic conditions (from 30 to 60 °C, with temperature increases of 0.

Identification of common cricket ( proteins, extracted by acid and alkaline methods.

Edible insects currently represent an interesting alternative protein source to the animal ones. The objective of the present wok is to characterize proteins isolated from common cricket (). Powder samples of this insect-based flour were obtained using two extraction methods, i.

Application of High Hydrostatic Pressure in fresh purple smoothie: Microbial inactivation kinetic modelling and qualitative studies.

The inactivation kinetics of during High Hydrostatic Pressure (HHP) treatments was studied in a purple smoothie based of fresh fruit and vegetables. Pressure intensity studied was 300, 350, 400 and 450 MPa. Untreated samples were used as control.

Mathematical modelling of the stress resistance induced in Listeria monocytogenes during dynamic, mild heat treatments.

Modelling of stress acclimation induced by thermal inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes under dynamic conditions is analyzed in this work. A mathematical model that separates the effect of the instantaneous temperature from the one of stress acclimation, was used. The model was trained using isothermal inactivation experiments, and one biphasic dynamic treatment with a heating rate of 1 °C/min and a holding phase of 60 °C.
