Abstract

The effects of PMF (5–7 T, 5–30 pulses) on enzyme activity, pH, titratable acidity, soluble solids, color, ascorbic acid, total phenols and antioxidant activity (DPPH radical scavenging activity) of cloudy apple juice were evaluated. PMF inhibited activities of polyphenoloxidase (PPO), peroxidase (POD) and pectinmethylesterase (PME), but PPO was more sensitive to PMF than POD and PME. At the intensity of 6 T with 15 pulses, PPO and POD both exhibited the lowest residual activity (53.22 and 92.96%), while PME showed the lowest residual activity (83.01%) at 7 T with 30 pulses. No significant effect on soluble solids was found under all processing parameters, whereas significant decreases of ascorbic acid were observed at the intensity of 7 T with 5–30 pulses. PMF did not change pH, titratable acidity, color, total phenols and DPPH radical scavenging activity severely. These results suggest PMF can be a potential technology for enzymatic inactivation in apple juice with high retention of quality.
