Foods with different moisture and fat contents (i.e. meat sauce and biscuits) were subjected to treatments at 4, 12 and 19 kPa for increasing lengths of time to remove furan and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). The vacuum treatments were ineffective in removing HMF from both food types, as well as furan from the biscuits, unless this food was preliminary hydrated at high water activity. However, the vacuum treatments allowed furan to be removed from the high moisture food. In particular, 67% furan removal from the meat sauce was achieved by applying 12 kPa for 10 min. Sensory analysis results showed that meat sauce subjected to such a treatment presented the same odor intensity of the untreated sample. The post-process vacuum treatment could represent a reliable strategy to mitigate the furan levels in high moisture foods.

Abstract
Foods with different moisture and fat contents (i.e. meat sauce and biscuits) were subjected to treatments at 4, 12 and 19 kPa for increasing lengths of time to remove furan and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). The vacuum treatments were ineffective in removing HMF from both food types, as well as furan from the biscuits, unless this food was preliminary hydrated at high water activity. However, the vacuum treatments allowed furan to be removed from the high moisture food. In particular, 67% furan removal from the meat sauce was achieved by applying 12 kPa for 10 min. Sensory analysis results showed that meat sauce subjected to such a treatment presented the same odor intensity of the untreated sample. The post-process vacuum treatment could represent a reliable strategy to mitigate the furan levels in high moisture foods.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
