Article Citation - WoS: 81Citation - Scopus: 115Effects of Ultraviolet Light Emitting Diodes (leds) on Microbial and Enzyme Inactivation of Apple Juice(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Pelvan Akgün, Merve; Ünlütürk, SevcanIn this study, the effects of Ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) on the inactivation of E. coli K12 (ATCC 25253), an indicator organism of E. coli O157:H7, and polyphneoloxidase (PPO) in cloudy apple juice (CAJ) were investigated. The clear (AJ) and cloudy apple juice were exposed to UV rays for 40 min by using a UV device composed of four UV-LEDs with peak emissions at 254 and 280 nm and coupled emissions as follows: 254/365, 254/405, 280/365, 280/405 and 254/280/365/405 nm. UV-LEDs at 254 nm achieved 1.6 ± 0.1 log10 CFU/mL inactivation of E. coli K12 at UV dose of 707.2 mJ/cm2. The highest inactivation of E. coli K12 (2.0 ± 0.1 log10 CFU/mL and 2.0 ± 0.4 log10 CFU/mL) was achieved when the cloudy apple juice was treated with both 280 nm and 280/365 nm UV-LEDs. For clear apple juice the highest inactivation 4.4 log10 CFU/mL obtained for E. coli K12 was achieved using 4 lamps emitting light at 280 nm for 40 min exposure time. For the same treatment time, the experiments using a combination of lamps emitting light at 280 and 365 nm (2lamp/2lamp) were resulted in 3.9 ± 0.2 log10 CFU/mL reductions. UV-A and UV-C rays in combination showed a better inactivation effect on PPO than UV-C rays used separately. Residual activity of PPO in CAJ was reduced to 32.58% when treated with UV-LED in combination of UV-C (280 nm) and UV-A (365 nm) rays. Additionally, the total color change (ΔE) of CAJ subjected to combined UV-LED irradiation at 280/365 nm was the lowest compared to other studied processing conditions. This study provides key implications for the future application of UV-LEDs to fruit juice pasteurization.Article Citation - WoS: 124Citation - Scopus: 144Use of Uv-C Radiation as a Non-Thermal Process for Liquid Egg Products (lep)(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Ünlütürk, Sevcan; Atılgan, Mehmet Reşat; Baysal, Ayşe Handan; Tarı, CananThe efficacy of short wave ultraviolet light (UV-C) as a non-thermal process for liquid egg products (LEP) was investigated. Non-pathogenic Escherichia coli strain (ATCC 8739), which shows lower sensitivity to UV-C light than E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella typhimurium, was chosen as a target microorganism. The inactivation of UV resistant strain of E. coli in LEP was examined by evaluating the effects of depth of liquid food medium (0.5, 0.3 and 0.153 cm), UV light intensity (1.314, 0.709 and 0.383 mW/cm2) and exposure time (0, 5, 10, and 20 min) by using a collimated beam apparatus. The best reduction (>2-log) was achieved in liquid egg white (LEW) when the fluid depth and UV intensity were 0.153 cm and 1.314 mW/cm2, respectively. Maximum inactivation was 0.675-log CFU/ml in liquid egg yolk (LEY) and 0.316-log CFU/ml in liquid whole egg (LWE) at the same conditions. The kinetics of UV inactivation of E. coli in LEP was nonlinear. Our results emphasize that UV-C radiation can be used as a pre-treatment process or combined with mild heat treatment to reduce the adverse effects of thermal pasteurization of LEP.
