Abstract
Ohmic heating of milk and fruit and vegetable juices was carried out at several incubation temperatures to investigate inactivation of alkaline phosphatase, pectin methylesterase and peroxidase. Mechanisms of inactivation of these enzymes and corresponding kinetic models were verified for each food material, using the multitemperature evaluation of inactivation data. Compared to inactivation by conventional indirect heating, kinetic parameters were changed but inactivation mechanisms remained the same. The kinetic parameter changes were relatively minor for pectin methylesterase and alkaline phosphatase. A significant destabilization of the labile isozyme fraction of peroxidase occurred by the effect of ohmic heating when the greatest decrease of stability was obtained for carrot juice.
