A First approach of using ultrasound as an alternative for blanching in vacuum-packaged potato strips [PDF]
The effect of ultrasound (US) (40 kHz, 200 W, 3 min), blanching (85 °C, 3.5 min), and the combination of both methods was evaluated on the quality of vacuum-packaged potato strips stored at 3 ± 1 °C for up to 10 days.

Kinetics of non-enzymatic browning reaction from the l-ascorbic acid/l-cysteine model system
The kinetics of the non-enzymatic browning reaction from l-ascorbic acid/l-cysteine model systems was investigated at 125-155°C for 10-120 min by measuring the loss of reactants and monitoring the brown colour development.
