Abstract

Alternating current electric field (ACEF) is a technique that can be applied to maintain the quality of plant-based products. This technique uses an electroporation process that has an impact on inactivating microorganisms and enzymes in food. The effect of ACEF application on food depends on the frequency, amplitude, time, type of food treated, etc. This review discusses the application of ACEF to several types of food, such as seafood, sweet potatoes, and oyster mushrooms. In general, the application of ACEF can maintain nutritional quality, physico-chemical properties, and extend the shelf life of products. Although ACEF can have a positive effect on the food being treated, process optimization is required to obtain an efficient process. The ACEF method can also be combined with hurdle technology to give food a better effect. This method can be used to assist the process of thawing, drying, etc. The results of the study show that ACEF has the potential to be applied to the food industry.
