Kinetics of peroxidase inactivation, color and temperature changes during pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) blanching using infrared heating

Abstract

Fresh Pumpkin is sensitive to microbial or enzymatic spoilage even in refrigeration temperatures, thus; blanching before freezing or canning is a proper way for preservation and commercialization of this product. In this study infrared irradiation was chosen as heating source and peroxidase as an indicator of enzyme inactivation adequacy for pumpkin blanching. Pumpkin purée was treated under 5 levels of temperature and 2 levels of sample thickness. Effect of thermal processing on the kinetic parameters of peroxidase inactivation (k, Ea, D and Z values) and color changes (ΔE) was investigated. Peroxidase inactivation of pumpkin samples followed a first order kinetics model. Calculated activation energies and Z values of enzyme inactivation process for 4 and 8 mm thickness levels were 130.63, 119.46 kJ mol−1 and 18.18, 17.85 °C, respectively. No significant difference was observed between activation energies and Z values of two thickness levels. But, the effect of temperature and thickness on inactivation rate constants (k) and D values was significant (P < 0.05). Investigation on the kinetics of color change was carried out by the calculation of ΔE changes during l log enzyme inactivation period. In this study, sample thickness showed a more significant effect on ΔE variations than temperature.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
