Applying pulsed electric fields to whole carrots enhances the bioaccessibility of carotenoid and phenolic compounds in derived products
(MDPI, 2021-06-08)We propose the application of pulsed electric fields (PEF) to carrots to obtain derived products with increased phenolic and carotenoid bioaccessibility. For this purpose, juices, purees, and oil-added purees were obtained ... -
Changes of carotenoid content in carrots after application of pulsed electric field treatments
(Elsevier, 2021-04-01)Under certain conditions, pulsed electric fields (PEF) can promote the accumulation of phytochemicals through a stress-mediated response in plant tissues. Likewise, electropermeabilization of cell membranes can also improve ... -
Efficacy of pectin-based coating added with a lemon byproduct extract on quality preservation of fresh-cut carrots
(MDPI, 2022)The effect of an edible pectin-based coating supplemented with a lemon byproduct extract on the quality attributes of fresh-cut carrots was studied. Color, hardness, microbial growth, respiratory activity, and antioxidant ... -
Enhancing hydroxycinnamic acids and flavan-3-ol contents by pulsed electric fields without affecting quality attributes of apple
(Elsevier, 2019)Pulsed electric fields (PEF) have arisen as a promising tool for enhancing plant-based food bioactive compounds, although side effects on quality attributes might compromise consumer acceptance. This work was aimed at ... -
Enhancing phenolic content in carrots by pulsed electric fields during post-treatment time: Effects on cell viability and quality attributes
(Elsevier, 2019-11-09)The impact of pulsed electric fields (PEF) and post-treatment time on the phenolic content and quality attributes of carrots was studied. Additionally, their influence on cellular permeability and viability was analyzed. ... -
Enhancing the carotenoid content of tomato fruit with pulsed electric field treatments: effects on respiratory activity and quality attribute
(Elsevier, 2018)Pulsed electric field (PEF) may be used to elicit the accumulation of carotenoids in plant tissues. The stress-adaptive response to PEF is dependent on the treatments conditions and could lead to undesirable effects on the ...
