Effects of ozone treatments on microbial quality and some chemical properties of lettuce, spinach, and parsley

TL;DR: The effects of distilled, ozonated and chlorinated water treatments on inactivation of Escherichia coli and Listeria innocua inoculated on lettuce, spinach, and parsley and on some chemical characteristics (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, ascorbic acid, and total phenolic contents and antioxidant activity) of these vegetables were investigated.

Pigments in Greek virgin olive oils: occurrence and levels

TL;DR: In this paper, the presence and levels of chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments using normal phase liquid chromatography and spectrometry were examined for two pheophytin derivatives (peaks A and B), eluted close to Pheo α, may potentially be used to examine handling conditions and length of storage of oil until analysis.

The effect of High Pressure and High Temperature processing on carotenoids and chlorophylls content in some vegetables.

TL;DR: Even though the carotenoids also remained in the green vegetables, their chlorophylls and therefore their colour were so affected that milder temperatures need to be applied.

Effects of cooking methods on chlorophylls, pheophytins and colour of selected green vegetables

TL;DR: The effect of microwave and conventional cooking methods on chlorophyll pigments and color properties of vegetables was studied by HPLC and colorimetry as mentioned in this paper, and the results showed that chlorophytins increased in all vegetables after cooking.

Kinetics of Chlorophyll Degradation to Pyropheophytin in Vegetables

TL;DR: In this paper, pyropheophytins a and b were determined as predominant chlorophyll derivatives in heat processed spinach and the suggested mechanism for the decomposition of chlorophyll during heat processing of vegetables was suggested.

Degradation kinetics of chlorophylls and chlorophyllides

TL;DR: In this article, the degradation kinetics of chlorophylls in spinach puree were studied from 100 to 145°C (2-25 min) and from 80 to 115°C(25-39 min) for chlorophyl compounds, respectively, with an isokinetic temperature of 1608°C.
