Inactivation kinetics of peroxidase in zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) by heat and UV-C radiation

The effect of traditional thermal water blanching, or its combination with a UV-C radiation pre-treatment (11 J/m2), on the inactivation kinetics of peroxidase in zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) was carried out in the temperature range of 80 to 98 °C, and up to 3 min of processing time. Peroxidase inac...
