Absorption of Aroma Volatiles of Orange Juice into Laminated Carton Packages Did Not Affect Sensory Quality

摘要

ABSTRACTOrange juice was stored in glass bottles and polyethylene/barrier material laminated cartons at 4°C for 24 wk. Studies were carried out on the absorption of 19 orange juice aroma compounds (e.g ethyl butyr‐ate, d‐limonene) into low density polyethylene (LDPE). Sensory evaluations were performed on the same orange juice in different packages over the storage period. A reduction of d‐limonene of up to 50 by absorption into the LDPE inside coating was observed. However, an experienced sensory panel did not distinguish between orange juice stored in glass bottles and polyethylene laminated c
