Four treatments were investigated: (i) 600 MPa/1 s; (ii) 600 MPa/300 s, and other two treatments with 2 cycles of HHP: (iii) 2 cycles of 600 MPa/1 s; and (iv) 1 first cycle of 400 MPa/1 s and a second cycle 600 MPa/1 s.

Application of White-Wine-Pomace-Derived Ingredients in Extending Storage Stability of Fresh Pork Burgers.

White wine pomace, a by-product from winemaking, was stabilized after the application of thermal blanching (with the aim of deactivating the polyphenoloxidase enzyme), milling, and processing by hydrostatic high-pressure treatment (with the aim of reducing initial microbial loads while preserving phenolic compounds content). The valorized pomace (VP) ingredient was added at different proportions to pork burgers (0.5%, 1%, and 3% /) to improve their preservation, and the effect was compared to those produced by sulfites and with a control (without sulfites or VP).

Preservation of white wine pomace by high hydrostatic pressure.

The effect of different high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatments (400, 600 MPa for 1, 6 min) on white wine pomace was studied throughout storage conditions (270 days) at different temperature conditions (4° and 20 °C). The final use of this product would be as an ingredient for food products preservation. Microbiological, enzyme and physico-chemical parameters were evaluated after processing and during storage.

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.

New Insights into the Application of High-Pressure Processing and Storage Time and Temperature to Sliced Iberian Chorizo.

Five dry-cured shoulders from Iberian pigs were used. Slices of these dry-cured shoulders were randomly packaged in MAP conditions.

Effect of a rice bran extract-based active packaging, high pressure processing and storage temperature on the volatile compounds of sliced dry-cured high quality (Montanera) Iberian ham.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate for the first time the effect of a rice bran extract based-active packaging with antioxidant and antimicrobial activity, high pressure processing (HPP) (600 MPa, 7 min), storage time (1, 90, and 180 days) and temperature (4 vs 20 °C) on the volatile compounds of sliced "Montanera" Iberian ham. The active packaging affected a quarter of the compounds, with a trend similar (although to a greater extent) to the one resulting from the HPP. The active packaging provided no clear advantages or serious drawbacks.

Effect of high-pressure treatment and storage temperature on top-quality (Montanera) Iberian dry-cured pork sausages (chorizo).

The stability after hydrostatic high pressure (HHP) (600 MPa/8 min/10 °C) and 180 days of storage at 4 and 20 °C was evaluated on Iberian dry-cured pork sausages (chorizo) packaged sliced or as half-pieces from pigs raised outdoors. Microbiological, physical-chemical, oxidative, and sensory changes were analyzed. The evolution of mesophilic aerobic and molds and yeasts counts was different in the half and sliced packaged pork sausages after processing and during storage.

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). Low pressures intensities did not induce changes in Igs while at 800 MPa, all combinations reduced the control levels. IL-6 and IL-10 were not affected by any of the treatments applied while IL-8 and TNF-α were reduced at treatments which combined temperatures at 50 °C.

Improvement of the Sterol and Triacylglycerol Compositions of Chemlali Virgin Olive Oils through Controlled Crossing with Mediterranean Cultivars.

The chemical composition of extra virgin olive oils (EVOOs) from six new progenies, obtained through controlled crossings between the main Tunisian variety Chemlali and autochthonous (Chemcheli) and foreign cultivars (Sigoise, Coratina, Koroneiki, and Arbequina) used as pollen acceptor or pollinator, were compared with the EVOO of Chemlali cultivar known to be the main one cultivated in Tunisia as it is the most adapted to the arid climate.

Phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity of virgin olive oil.

The characterisation of virgin olive oil from Arbequina, Carrasqueña, Corniche, Manzanilla Cacereña, Morisca, Picual, and Verdial de Badajoz varieties according to the individual phenolic compounds at different ripening stage was carried out.
