High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is the most-widely adopted novel non-thermal technology for the commercial pasteurization of foods. However, HHP-induced inactivation of bacterial spores remains a challenge due their resistance to the treatment limits of currently available industrial HHP units (i.e., ~650 MPa and 50°C). Several reports have demonstrated that high...
This work focused on assessing lipid damage during the storage of frozen Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) subjected to a high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment (150, 300, 450 MPa with holding times of 0.0, 2.5, and 5.0 min) prior to freezing. The extent of lipid hydrolysis (free fatty acids) and oxidation...
This research focuses on biochemical changes related to quality losses observed in Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) muscle stored under commercial frozen storage conditions (9 months, -18 ºC) when subjected to high-hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatments (125, 150, 175 and 200 MPa for 0 min) before freezing. After freezing, free fatty acid...
Frozen storage of horse mackerel (Trachurus trachurus) is limited by lipid damage causing sensory quality losses. This work deals with changes in functional and sensory properties during frozen storage of horse mackerel treated by high hydrostatic pressure processing (HPP) prior to freezing. Three levels of pressure (150, 300, and 450...
This work focuses on the effect of a previous high pressure processing (HPP) on the lipid damage development occurring during the frozen storage (-10ºC; up to 3 months) of Atlantic horse mackerel (Trachurus trachurus). HPP conditions included different pressure (150, 300, 450 MPa) and pressure holding time (0.0, 2.5, 5.0...
The frozen storage of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) is limited by lipid damage causing sensory quality losses, an important drawback to its commercialisation. This work deals with changes in functional and sensory properties during freezing and frozen storage of Atlantic mackerel pre-treated by high hydrostatic pressure processing (HPP). Three levels...
