Notes:
: Mangos were sliced, vacuum-sealed, and processed at 300 MPa or 600 MPa for 1 min. Fresh mango flavor declined and off-flavor increased during storage at 3 °C, but color, texture, and other sensory attributes changed very little. After 9 wk, the microbial levels in the control were 2 and 3 log CFU/mL greater than the 300 and 600 MPa treatments, respectively. Pressure treatments also slightly reduced fresh mango flavor and increased off-flavor and sweetness. Carambolas were sliced, vacuum-sealed, and processed at 600 MPa for 2, 4, or 6 min; at 800 MPa for 1, 3, or 5 min; or not treated. Samples were stored at 3 °C for 2 and 4 wk and color was evaluated after air exposure. All the 800 MPa treatments reduced browning compared to the control, but the 600 MPa was less effective.
