Abstract

Mandarin orange (Citrus reticulata Blanco) contains heat resistant enzymes, peroxidase and pectinmethylesterase (PME). Method for determining thermal inactivation time of the PME and peroxidase and decimal reduction time (D) is given. The thermal inactivation curve was drawn by plotting inactivation rate against time. Cooling curves at different points were also drawn. The actual processing time was determined by graphical interpolation. F values were calculated. Equivalents of F values in terms of D are determined in commercial processing, 5 D at pH 3.6 and 6 D at pH 4.0 are recommended.
