Effect of sweet solutes on the quality of a pumpkin puree (Cucurbita Moschata Duchesne Ex Poiret) preserved by the hurdle technology

The effect of glucose and xylitol on the quality of a pumpkin puree preserved by the hurdle technology was studied. It was demonstrated that the addition of glucose or xylitol to depress water activity (Aw) to 0.98 was necessary to assure 3 weeks of microbial stability at 25C of a pH 4.00 pumpkin pu...
