The use of pulsed light in a hurdle preservation strategy

The growing consumer demand for safe foods with improved quality has stimulated interest in alternative technologies for preservation. Among these technologies, pulsed light (PL) is a rapid, low-energy technique which imposes low thermal damage to a product while inactivating food microorganisms. It...

Among these technologies, pulsed light (PL) is a rapid, low-energy technique which imposes low thermal damage to a product while inactivating food microorganisms.
