The effect of high hydrostatic pressure on antioxidant activity, total phenolic compounds, physicochemical characteristics, color, pectin methylesterase activity, and microbiological count were evaluated during the shelf life of Pêra-Rio orange juice. Pressurized (520 MPa, 60 ℃, for 360 s), non-processed and pasteurized (95 ℃/30 s) orange juice were compared at zero time of storage. Pressurized and pasteurized juices were studied during a refrigerated 90-day shelf life. Pressurization did not cause expressive change in physicochemical characteristics of Pêra-Rio orange juice along shelf life, but significantly reduced pectin methylesterase residual activity to 13% and microbiological counts below detection levels up to 68 days of storage, with small counts (30.0 × 10 CFU/mL mesophilic aerobic bacteria and 20.7 × 10 CFU/mL yeast and mold) at 90 days, capable of ensuring the juice’s stability along shelf life. Lightness ( L*) and b* values were significantly reduced by high hydrostatic pressure during shelf life, while a* values were significantly higher. Ascorbic acid decreased around 80% during shelf life. Antioxidant activity remained stable after processing and during storage.

The effect of processing such as high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) (400-600 MPa/15 min) or low pasteurization temperature (LPT) (74°C/2 min) or high pasteurization temperature (HPT) (90°C/1 min) on selected quality parameters of juice obtained from hydroponically cultivated beef tomatoes was investigated. The total polyphenols content (TPC), total phenolic index (TPI), Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (ABTS) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were analysed in the fresh and processed juices stored for 0, 7 and 14 days. What is more, colour parameters (L∗,a∗,b∗,∆E), the activity of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD) and microbial stability were also analyzed following the juices storage. Among all the tested samples, the juice exposed to 600 MPa for 15 min showed superior quality. Samples treated with 600 MPa for 15 min and stored for 0, 7 and 14 days had high TPC, TPI, ABTS, FRAP and a∗ values. As demonstrated, these tested samples at the end of the storage period retained 90% and 95% of their polyphenol content and antioxidant capacity, respectively. As in the case of pasteurization, juice processing at 600 MPa for 15 min clearly reduced the activity of food-spoiling enzymes (PPO, POD) as well as the microbial count. The obtained results showed that TPC was significantly and positively correlated with TPI, ABTS and FRAP parameters.
