Techniques to Detect Electroporation

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Processing of Foods and Biomass Feedstocks by Pulsed Electric Energy

Abstract

Detection and quantifying of electroporation effects in food and biological materials (food plants, biomass feedstocks and bio-suspensions) is very important for numerous practical applications. Currently, different methods and techniques have been proposed to detect and measure electroporation effects. This chapter presents the current methods to quantify electroporation effects based on the dielectric spectroscopy data (low-frequency, low-high frequency and phase shift methods, electro-kinetic methods), texture analysis (stress–deformation and relaxation tests, and acoustic methods), solute diffusivity data, image analysis (light and electron microscopy), and other methods. Numerous examples of electroporation detection and quantification are presented for different food materials. Benefits and disadvantages of each method are discussed.
