Popis: | Low power ( 1 kW m− 2) ultrasound methods are well-known to impact on fat crystallization and structuring, they have many drawbacks, causing off-flavours through product oxidation and a metallic taste probably associated with sonotrode wear. Furthermore, process development with power ultrasound is hit and miss, applications being largely empirical and poorly understood. We have recently shown that well-controlled crystal nucleation can be obtained using low power, quasi-continuous ultrasound and acoustical pressure fields, opening up a new field of application in food processing for ultrasonics. |
