Abstract

Based on laser diffraction, pulp particles > 900 μm were detected in tomato concentrates; particles greater than 100-200 μn were found in serum from a concentrate. Creep-compliance and dynamic rheological data showed that viscoelastic properties of 21° Brix tomato concentrates using a 0.84 mm finisher screen were higher than those from a 0.69 mm screen. Both types of viscoelastic properties were sensitive to increase in concentration in that they increased with increase in Brix of the concentrates. Magnitudes of instantaneous modulus (G0 = 1/J0) of the tomato concentrates were of the same order of magnitude as the storage modulus (G′) at 1 rad s-1.
