evaluated the effect of ultrasound (20 kHz) on
soybean lipoxygenase buffer and observed a synergistic inactivation
effect between heat conditions and ultrasound. Minimally
processed fruits and vegetables are not subjected to heat treatment;
therefore, it is useful to study the effect of ultrasound alone
or in combination with other non-thermal treatments on the
inactivation of enzymes, such as lipoxygenase. It is important that
the treatment does not cause changes in taste and odour in food.
