Summary

Effects of commercial-scale pulsed electric field (PEF) processing on the flavour and colour of tomato juice during storage at 4 °C for 112 days were studied. Tomato juice was prepared by hot break at 88 °C for 2 min and then thermally processed at 92 °C for 90 s or PEF processed at 40 kV/cm for 57 ms. The PEF-processed tomato juice retained more flavour compounds of trans-2-hexenal, 2-isobutylthiazole, cis-3-hexanol than thermally processed or unprocessed control tomato juice. PEF-processed juice had significantly lower nonenzymatic browning and higher redness than thermally processed or control juice. Sensory evaluations indicated that the flavour of PEF-processed juice was preferred to that of thermally processed juice.
