Adsorption onto chromium surfaces during heat treatment (65-68°C) of beta-lactoglobulin A and B in phosphate buffer, pH 6.88, was investigated by in situ ellipsometry. Thermal unfolding and in situ heat-induced aggregation under the same conditions were studied by differential scanning calorimetry a

✦ Synopsis
The e †ect of continuous-Ñow microwave heat treatment of orange juice was evaluated by using parameters of quality (pectin methylesterase (PME) inactivation and ascorbic acid, free amino acids, carbohydrates and hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) contents, as well as degree of browning). Results were compared with those obtained using a conventional tubular heat exchanger having the same heating and cooling phases. The continuous microwave process proved to be an e †ective system for PME inactivation without the inclusion of a holding phase. In general, no di †erences were found between the two systems used in the majority of the indicators studied, except that a slight decrease was observed in the most reactive amino acids in the case of conventionally heated orange juice. This fact could be due to overheating of the juice at the tubular heat exchanger.

The use of non-destructive near-infrared reflectance (NIR) measurements to predict the change in sensory quality of carrot discs during heat treatment was investigated. Near-infrared reflectance measurements were performed on five different batches of carrots, cooked for 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, or 15 min, w
