Description: Aqueous mixtures of ascorbic acid and thiamin hydrochloride dissolved in 0.1 Mphosphate buffer (pH 5.5) were sealed in small glass vials (1.8 mL capacity) and placed in 307 X 409 (87 mm diameter, 115 mm height) cans filled with vegetables. In addition, aqueous buffered solutions of vitamins were also directly filled into separate 307 X 409 cans and vacuum sealed. All cans were subjected to approximately equivalent accumulated process lethalities (Fo - 10 min) in a rotary steam/air retort. Process variables were retort temperature (I 10-1 30?C) and rotation speed (0-20 rpm). Percentage retention of the vitamins in each sample was determined experimentally using a HPLC technique. The study indicated that processing at 110?C yielded significantly lower retention (p<0.05) of both vitamins, relative to 120 and 130?C. However, the rotation speed did not have a significant effect (p > 0.05) on the retention of vitamin in either cans or in-can vials. Estimated ascorbic acid and thiamin retention using experimental time-temperature data and published kinetic parameters showed fairly good agreement with experimental data.
