Effects of Temperature on Free Energy02:11

Effects of Temperature on Free Energy

27.7K
The spontaneity of a process depends upon the temperature of the system. Phase transitions, for example, will proceed spontaneously in one direction or the other depending upon the temperature of the substance in question. Likewise, some chemical reactions can also exhibit temperature-dependent spontaneities. To illustrate this concept, the equation relating free energy change to the enthalpy and entropy changes for the process is considered:

Heat and temperature are essential concepts for everyone every day. The study of heat and temperature is part of an area of physics known as thermodynamics. It is not always easy to distinguish heat and temperature.
The concept of temperature has evolved from the common concepts of hot and cold. The scientific definition of temperature explains more than just our sense of hot and cold. Temperature is operationally defined as the quantity measured with a thermometer. Furthermore, temperature is...

Extraction: Effects of pH

1.1K
Consider a neutral form of an amine, B, with a partition coefficient, K, in a liquid mixture containing organic and aqueous phases. The pH of the aqueous phase affects the charge on acidic and basic solutes, and the charged form is usually more soluble in the aqueous phase. Suppose the conjugate acid form of the amine is soluble only in the aqueous phase while the base form is soluble in both phases. Then the distribution coefficient, D, can be given as the ratio of amine concentration in the...

Thermal Stress01:09

Thermal Stress

3.2K
If the temperature of an object is changed while it is prevented from expanding or contracting, the object is subjected to stress. The stress is compressive if the object expands in the absence of constraint and tensile if it contracts. This stress resulting from temperature change is known as thermal stress. It can be quite large and can cause damage. To avoid this stress, engineers may design components so they can expand and contract freely. For instance, on highways, gaps are deliberately...

Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Area of Science:

  • Food Science
  • Biochemistry
  • Analytical Chemistry

Background:

  • Açai juice is rich in bioactive compounds but susceptible to degradation during processing.
  • Understanding the impact of various processing techniques on açai juice quality is crucial for preserving its nutritional value.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effects of High-Temperature Short Time (HTST), Ultra High Temperature (UHT), High Power Ultrasound (US), UV-pulsed-light, and Low Pressure Plasma (LPP) on açai juice.
  • To analyze changes in composition, stability, and bioactive compound bioaccessibility using a 1H NMR-based approach coupled with chemometrics.

Main Methods:

  • Comparative analysis of açai juice processed via thermal (HTST, UHT) and non-thermal (US, UV-pulsed-light, LPP) methods.
  • Utilized 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and chemometrics to assess compositional changes.
  • Evaluated the bioaccessibility of key bioactive compounds, including sugars, amino acids, fatty acids, phenolics, anthocyanins, and vitamin C.

Main Results:

  • Non-thermal methods generally increased sugars (glucose, fructose) and betaine, except for US.LPP.
  • Thermal processing (HTST, UHT) increased fatty acids and phenolic compounds.
  • Bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds decreased with processing; UHT showed a 2-fold increase in anthocyanin bioaccessibility.
  • Combined non-thermal treatment reduced biocompound bioaccessibility to 40%, but US.LPP improved vitamin C by 8%.
  • UHT significantly decreased vitamin C bioaccessibility while increasing anthocyanins.
  • Thermal processing had a greater impact on vitamin C, anthocyanins, phenolics, and antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP) during storage.

Conclusions:

  • Processing significantly alters açai juice composition and bioactive compound profiles.
  • Thermal processing methods like UHT enhance anthocyanin bioaccessibility but reduce vitamin C, with greater long-term impacts on overall quality.
  • Non-thermal methods offer alternatives with varying effects, necessitating careful selection based on desired outcomes for açai juice preservation.
