The degradation of patulin introduced into different juices then treated with high hydrostatic
22 pressure (HHP) was evaluated. A model juice prepared from apple and spinach (AS) was studied
23 along with commercially available apple-based beverages; Pineapple:Apple:Mint (PAM),
24 Apple:Carrot:Beet:Lemon:Ginger (CAB) and Romaine:Celery:Cucumber:Apple:Spinach:Kale,
25 Parsley:lemon (GJ). The extent of patulin degradation was found to be dependent on applied
26 pressure and processing time (degradation rates ranged from 0.04 – 0.19 ppb/s). The extent of
27 patulin degradation could also be significantly (P
