The color parameters (L*, a*, b*), turbidity, POD and PPO indicated no significant effect (p > 0.05) or had determination coefficient (R2) lower than 0.8. Thus, the statistical models cannot be constructed, however, can be verified through the analysis of individual data, a tendency towards browning of the sample (lower L*) with increasing retention time; and lower a* values with increasing process temperature; as well as higher values of the b* parameter with increasing sulphite content.
