Effect of ultrasound technology on structure, physical properties and lycopene in vitro accessibility in guava juice The consumption of guava juice is not only because of its pleasant sensory characteristics, but also due to its nutritional value, especially the high concentration of lycopene. The ultrasound technology is a non-conventional method of food processing with great potential in the industrialization of juices. The present Dissertation evaluated the effect of ultrasonic processing on the structure and properties of guava juice. Guava juice was processed by high power ultrasound in different processing conditions. The effect on the structure, concentration and in vitro accessibility of lycopene and physical properties (pulp sedimentation, turbidity and color) was evaluated. The results of this study demonstrate that the ultrasonic processing disrupts the guava cells, releasing their content and altering their properties. Although this processing decreases the amount of lycopene in guava juice, the consequent higher exposure increased the in vitro accessibility of this carotenoid. Furthermore, the reduction of the dispersed particles size increased the physical stability of the juice, avoiding pulp precipitation during storage, but without significant modification in its colour. In conclusion, the present work demonstrated that ultrasound technology can be an interesting alternative to improve the physical and nutritional properties of fruit juices, indicating its importance both academic and industrial.
