The effect of combined temperature-pressure treatments on pepper (Capsicum annuum) pectin methylesterase in model systems

At atmospheric pressure, purified pepper PME starts to inactivate at temperatures higher than 54°C. But when mild temperaturelhigh-pressure treatments are applied (T254"C, P<300MPa), an antagonistic effect of pressure and temperature is observed. Pressure seems to wield a protective effect o...
