Thermal Kinetic Study of Color Changes and 5-Hydroxymethyl Furfural Formation in Litchi Juice
Effect of different thermal treatments on formation of 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF) and its relation with nonenzymatic browning of iitchi juice (cv. Huaizhi) were studied.The results showed that the rate of change in browning index (A420) and formation of 5-HMF followed a first-order kinetic pattern when heated under 60,70,80,90 and 98℃ for a prolonged period of 5h.The activation energy for the browning and the formation of 5-HMF was 51.19 and 143.64 kJ/mol, respectively.As the prolongation of heating time,the rate of 5-HMF formation increased as the temperature rose.The amount of 5-HMF formed under 98℃ was approximately 40 times of that under 60℃ after 5h of heating,i.e.,66.98 and 1.69 mg/kg respectively.The formation of 5-HMF,and A420,total color difference (TCD*) of litchi juice during heating exhibited a significant positive correlation.This study indicated the browning problems related to litchi juice after thermal processing was caused by the formation of 5-HMF,a Maillard Reaction intermediate product,and therefore the color of litchi juice is vulnerable to high temperature treatment and prolonged heating time.
