No es suficiente que entiendas acerca de la ciencia aplicada para que tu trabajo incremente las bendiciones del hombre
La preocupación por el hombre mismo y su destino debe siempre formar parte del interés primordial de todos los esfuerzos técnicos, preocuparnos por los grandes problemas no resueltos en la organización del trabajo y en la distribución de los bienes – para que las creaciones de nuestra mente sean una bendición y no una maldición para la humanidad
Nunca olvides esto en medio de tus diagramas y ecuaciones

Consumers are demanding miracle foods that are totally natural, have zero calories, zero fats and cholesterol, delicious taste, total nutrition, low price, environmentally friendly production, ‘green’ packaging… and that guarantee perfect bodies, romance and immortality
(Carol Brookins, Global Food and Agriculture Summit, 1999)

High Pressure Basics
Two elephants balanced on a piston with a cross section of a dime will create a pressure of 400 Mega Pascal (MPa)
This is approximately 60,000 pounds per square inch
Where on Earth could you find these pressures?
High Pressure Basics
High Pressure Basics Microorganisms are typically
found in many foods. Some microorganisms are harmless and will only spoil food
But other microorganisms such as E. coli 0157:H7 in fresh juice or Listeria monocytogenes in ready to eat meats can make some people very ill
High Pressure Basics
High Pressure can kill microorganisms by interrupting with their cellular function without the use of heat that can damage the taste, texture, and nutritional value of the food.

High Pressure Basics
Hydrostatic pressure creates no shear force to distort food particles. Thus, any moist food such as a whole grape can be exposed to ultrahigh-pressures without being crushed
You can create a hydrostatic pressure by squeezing on a water filled plastic bottle. No matter how hard you squeeze, you can not crush a grape placed inside
High Pressure Basics
One of the unique advantages of ultrahigh-pressure processing is that pressure transmission is instantaneous and uniform
Pressure transmission is not controlled by product size and no edge or thickness effect takes place

High Pressure Basics
Due to the low compressibility of water, the amount of energy needed to compress food is relatively low
UHP is more energy efficient than many high temperature food production methods
In addition, UHP requires only electricity and water and results in no dangerous emissions

High Pressure Basics Electrostriction
Pressure leads to increased ionization, because water molecules arrange more compact around electric charges
This results in more or less pronounced negative and reversible pH shifts dependant on the chemical nature of the buffer
High Pressure Basics
Principle of Le Chatelier
Chemical reactions which result in a decrease in total volume are enhanced by pressure – negative activation volume

Perspective
The unique physical and sensory properties of
food processed by emerging technologies
– New challenges for food product development
Identification of commercially feasible

– Most difficult of the challenges for emerging
technologies
– Dependent on the development of multidisciplinary

Perspective
A consortium of researchers is studying the
feasibility of producing high-quality, shelf-
stable, low-acid foods using high pressure
processing
– industry, government, and academia
Goal: submitting a process filing to the US
Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
Perspective Like thermal processing, emerging technologies
will be used commercially before they are
completely understood scientifically
– Research is still being conducted on thermal processing
The first generation of commercial high-pressure-
processed products may be shelf stable, but
optionally could be distributed under refrigeration
as Extended Shelf Life (ESL) products
– novel, minimally processed, convenient food items with
fresh-like attributes and natural-looking colors
Perspective
Development of validation criteria for safe
processing of shelf-stable foods will evolve
as experience is gained by the first
generation of products
Perspective
There is a need for a consistent approach for
establishing equivalency of pressure
processes
– The use of food safety objectives and
performance criteria provide the basis for
assessing equivalency
Perspective Emerging technologies and hurdle technology
– Synergistic combinations of preservation factors
• Food quality and stability
– Stability studies
• Identify the main degradation mode during storage
