High Isostatic Pressure Application in Dairy Products: A Review

Abstract

High Isostatic Pressure (HIP) has gained prominence in several food industry sectors, including dairy. This emerging technology is effective to ensure microbiological safety to food similarly to conventional thermal processes (pasteurization), with the advantage of maintaining favorable sensory and nutritional characteristics, providing consumers products similar to the natural. The aim of this study was to put up a literature review on the application and prospects of HIP in food industry, especially regarding the dairy industry.
