More Information
Summary:Nonthermal food-processing technologies are eco-friendly and emerging novel processing methodologies for extending the shelf life and assuring the safety and quality of food products. Although the traditional high-temperature thermal sterilization technologies are most commonly in practice, these heat treatments may cause major damage to food structure, ingredients, and flavor. Hence, with the advent of novel food processing technologies such as pulsed light technology (PLT), it is possible to retain the original quality of final products.
