Extending and Measuring the Quality of Fresh-cut Fruit and Vegetables: a Review

TL;DR: A number of alternatives for preservation of fresh-cut vegetables have been proposed, such as antioxidants, irradiation, ozone, organics acids, modified atmosphere packaging, whey permeate, etc as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Foodborne viruses: an emerging problem.

TL;DR: The viral contamination of food can occur anywhere in the process from farm to fork, but most foodborne viral infections can be traced back to infected persons who handle food that is not heated or otherwise treated afterwards, therefore, emphasis should be on stringent personal hygiene during preparation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbiological aspects of Ozone applications in food: A review

TL;DR: Ozone is a powerful antimicrobial agent that is suitable for application In food in the gaseous and aqueous states and when applied to food, ezone is generated on-site and it decomposes quickly, leaving no residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of ozone in the food industry

TL;DR: Ozone is a strong oxidant and potent disinfecting agent and has been used in the food industry for a long time as discussed by the authors, however, it has not yet been widely accepted in the United States.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methods to Reduce/Eliminate Pathogens from Fresh and Fresh-Cut Produce

TL;DR: This chapter focuses on this growing area of research with a particular emphasis on human pathogenic microorganisms; however, research related to mitigation treatment effects on nonpathogenic organisms is also included.

Determination of ozone in water by the indigo method

TL;DR: In this article, the decolorization of indigo trisulfonate (600 nm, pH below 4) was used to determine the concentration of aqueous ozone in the range 0.005 −30 mg 1−1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decomposition of ozone in water in the presence of organic solutes acting as promoters and inhibitors of radical chain reactions

TL;DR: The derived reaction kinetics allows one to qualitatively interpret the variation of the lifetime of O/sub 3/ found in model solutions and even in natural waters and during drinking water treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Normal atmosphere: large radical and formaldehyde concentrations predicted.

TL;DR: A radical chain reaction is proposed for the rapid removal of carbon monoxide, leading to acarbon monoxide lifetime as low as 0.2 year in the surface atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of hydroxyl radical reactions in ozonation processes in aqueous solutions

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that up to 0.55 ± 0.08 mol of hydroxyl radicals may be produced from 1 mol ozone at pH 10.5.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of ozone, chlorine dioxide, chlorine, and monochloramine on Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst viability.

TL;DR: The data indicate that C. parvum oocysts are 30 times moreresistant to ozone and 14 times more resistant to chlorine dioxide than Giardia cysts exposed to these disinfectants under the same conditions.
