Effect of Indirect Ohmic Heating on Quality of Ready-To-Eat Pineapple Packed in Plastic Pouch Songklanakarin J. Sci. Technol. 36 (3), 317-324, May - Jun. 2014 http://www.sjst.psu.ac.th Original Article Effect of indirect ohmic heating on quality of ready-to-eat pineapple packed in plastic pouch. Hoang Pham, Weerachet Jittanit, and Tanaboon Sajjaanantakul* Department of Food Science and Technology, Faculty of Agro-Industry, Kasetsart University, Chatuchak, Bangkok, 10900 Thailand. Received 20 February 2013; Accepted 25 March 2014 Abstract Ready-to-eat fruits packed in sealed containers are highly perishable due to their intrinsic characteristics and lack of full thermal process. Ohmic heating has the advantages of rapid liquid heating through electrical current. The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of indirect ohmic heating on pH, total soluble solids, polyphenol oxidase activity, color and texture of ready-to-eat pineapple packed in a polypropylene pouch with 1% calcium chloride and 0.3% ascorbic acid packing solution. The pre-packed sample in a pouch was placed in the ohmic heating jar filled with 0.5% sodium chloride ohmic heating solution which was then ohmic heated at different voltage gradients (20, 30, 40 V/cm), to different packing solution temperatures (60, 70, 80°C) for 60s. Samples were kept at 4°C for quality measurement. It was found that browning index of ready-to-eat pineapple treated with 20 V/cm at 80°C, 30 V/cm at 70°C and 80°C, 40 V/cm at 80°C did not change during 12 days cold storage (p>0.05). Polyphenol oxidase was inactivated when the temperature of the pineapple was 62°C or higher. After 10 days at 4°C, the pineapple heated with 30 V/cm at 70°C had much higher firmness than the un-heated sample kept at the same storage condition. Indirect ohmic heating of pre-packed ready-to-eat pineapple in polypropylene pouch with 30 V/cm at 70°C packing solution temperature for 60s could be used as minimal heating methods to maintain the quality of ready-to-eat fruits in 12 days at 4°C.

Materials and Methods 2.1 Sample preparation Fresh pineapple, smooth cayenne cultivar, was bought from wholesale fruit market in Rungsit district, Bangkok, Thailand, and stored at 10±1°C overnight prior before pro- cessing. The fruits had been harvested on the previous day with not more than 15% of the eyes were yellow. All fruits were within the range of 13.8±0.3 °Brix and a pH of 3.8±0.1. Cutting boards, knives, working surface were cleaned with 200 ppm sodium hypochlorite solution before use (Montero- Calderon et al., 2008). Fruits were peeled with a pouch thick- Figure 1.

A 50 g of pineapple was mixed with a Mcllvaine buffer solution (1:1) at pH 6.5 containing 1% vinylpolypyrrolidone (Fluka, Sigma Aldrich, Germany). The mixture was blended and homogenized for 30s and centrifuged at 9,100 x g for 30 min at 4°C (Sorvall RC-6 Plus centrifuge, roto SLA 1500, Thermal Scientific, Germany).

Smith * Laboratory of Applied Inkjet Printing, University of Sheffield, Sheffield S1 4BJ, UK; vbeedasy1@sheffield.ac.uk * Correspondence: patrick.smith@sheffield.ac.uk Received: 26 December 2019; Accepted: 2 February 2020; Published: 4 February 2020 Abstract: Inkjet printing has been used to produce a range of printed electronic devices, such as solar panels, sensors, and transistors. This article discusses inkjet printing and its employment in the field of printed electronics. First, printing as a field is introduced before focusing on inkjet printing. The materials that can be employed as inks are then introduced, leading to an overview of wetting, which explains the influences that determine print morphology. The article considers how the printing parameters can affect device performance and how one can account for these influences. The article concludes with a discussion on adhesion. The aim is to illustrate that the factors chosen in the fabrication process, such as dot spacing and sintering conditions, will influence the performance of the device. Keywords: inkjet printing; printed electronics; droplet behavior; ink; laser sintering; electrical conductivity; adhesion 1. Introduction Like many areas of human endeavor, the field of printed electronics is full of promise and challenge. The promise is a simple method of producing a wide range of electronic circuits and devices on large flexible substrates cheaply. The challenge is a continuing drive to improve performance, increase manufacturing speed, and identify new applications. In this article, the reader is first introduced to the method of manufacture: printing. Several of the principal printing techniques will be discussed with an emphasis placed on inkjet printing, as that is a particular research interest of the authors.
