Abstract
The combination of high hydrostatic pressure and temperature has become a valuable alternative to produce superior quality products in cases where the traditional thermal treatments have failed to deliver high-quality products. Unfortunately, the impact of pressure on chemical reactions in food systems is often overlooked. This review summarizes studies on chemical reactions in various food systems that have been qualitatively and quantitatively evaluated under high pressure at either ambient, moderate, or elevated temperatures. In addition, a critical discussion on the current approaches was used to evaluate the reaction rates, and therefore, the reaction mechanisms of some food systems are provided. Activation volume and activation energy of various food systems treated by high hydrostatic pressure are also provided. Finally, the need of kinetic studies in food systems is highlighted.
