    Notes: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) was used to obtain 2-dimensional temperature maps in potatoes undergoing aseptic processing. The change in precession frequency of protons served as the temperature indicator. The larger particles (6.9 and 3.84 cm3) showed a δT (Tsurface - Tcenter) of up to 22±0.4°C 45s after exiting the heat exchanger with the δ (Toutlet - Tinlet) of the carrier fluid in the heat exchanger at 30 to 45°C. No AT was measured between the center and the surface of particles 〈2.05 cm3 pumped at 〈22.7 L/min. The average fluid to particle convective heat transfer coefficient (hfp) for the heat exchanger and holding tube was calculated using a finite element method. The hfp was from 600 to 2500 and 〉3000 W/m2°C for the large (6.9 cm3 cubes) and smaller particles respectively.

    Notes: Although the idea of electrical treatment of foods for microbial control is not new, the data available on nonthermal effects of electricity are limited and inconclusive. an understanding of such effects would be useful in developing new methods for microbial inactivation. the present review discusses a number of different methods of electrical treatment and their nonthermal effects on microorganisms. Subjects discussed include electric pasteurization of milk, electrohydraulic shock, electroporation, and electroconductive heating. Information relating to mechanisms contributing to microbial death is summarized and discussed.

    Notes: One current explanation for research findings of enhanced microbial kill under microwave heating is that of selective absorption of microwave energy within the organism. In the present study, the temperature difference between a microorganism and its surrounding liquid medium were studied using well-established heat transfer principles. Results of the analysis show that because of the microscopic size of bacteria, the surface area to volume ratios of these organisms are extremely high, resulting in rapid heat loss to the surrounding environment. Thus the microorganisms have to possess extremely high dielectric loss factors to maintain even small temperature differences. the energy absorption difference required for a 1°C difference between microorganism and medium is presented for a range of conditions.

    Notes: A device was developed to determine the electrical conductivities of foods under ohmic or conventional heating conditions. Orange and tomato juices (serum and various solids contents) were tested in the device. the electrical conductivity of juices increased with temperature and decreased with solids content. the temperature dependence of conductivity was linear, both under conventional and ohmic heating. Experiments on suspensions of carrot juice solids, and polystyrene spheres in sodium phosphate solution showed an increase in electrical conductivity of the suspension with decreasing particle size.

    Notes: The ohmic heating rate of a liquid-particle mixture is expected to depend on particle orientation. A mathematical model was developed to determine the extent of orientation dependence for the case of a cubic particle. the particle and liquid resistances were determined by taking incremental sections through the particle and using the electrical conductivity to calculate the effective resistance. Modeling and experimental results indicate that for a cubic particle, orientation effects are slight; both with regard to effective resistance and heating time. However, this result is not expected to apply to particles of large aspect ratios.

    Notes: Electrical conductivities of three vegetable and two meat samples were determined by subjecting them to a constant voltage power supply in a static ohmic heating device. Conductivities of vegetable samples were increased by soaking them in salt solutions, while soaking in water resulted in reduced conductivity due to leaching of electrolytes. Conductivities under ohmic heating conditions increased linearly with temperature. When field strengths were decreased, the conductivity-temperature curve gradually became nonlinear, and under conventional heating conditions, a sharp transition was observed.

    Notes: Understanding of the ohmic heating of liquid-particle mixtures requires preliminary study and model development within a static heater. A mathematical (3D finite element) model was developed for prediction of temperatures of mixtures of liquids and multiple particles within a static heater. Experiments were conducted using cubic potato particles within sodium phosphate solutions, for various particle sizes, orientations, concentrations, and liquid conductivities. the mathematical model was found to yield satisfactory prediction of experimental trends. Critical parameters affecting the relative heating rates of particles and liquid were the conductivities of the two phases, and the volume fraction of each phase. Ohmic heating appears most promising with high-solids concentration mixtures.

    Notes: Suspensions of yeast cell (zygo Saccharomyces bailii) in a phosphate buffer solution were subjected to conventional (hot water) and ohmic (electric current) heating under identical temperature histories. Experiments were also conducted with cells of Escherichia coli to compare the lethal effect of combination of sublethal electrical preteatment and conventional heating with conventional heating. The kinetic parameters (D,Z,K and Ea) were determined for both organisms during different treatments. There was no significant difference in the death rate of yeast cells during conventional and ohmic heating at the voltage range used in this study. Results of electrical pretreatment and conventional heating on E. coli indicated differences under certain conditions when compared with pure conventional heating. Thus it is concluded that microbial death during ohmic heating was due primarily to thermal effects with no significant effect of electric current per se. Sublethal electrical pretreatment appears to offer potential for increased bacterial inactivation in certain cases.
