pascalization

Noun

1. A method of preserving and sterilizing food through the use of high pressure.
   • High isostatic pressure processing has been termed "pascalization" because it follows Pascal's principle. High isostatic pressure is instantaneously and uniformly transmitted throughout the pressure medium and the food...
   • It is also termed as hyperbaric pressure processing or ultra-high pressure or high-pressure processing (HPP) or pascalization. In HPP, a food is subjected to high-pressure in the range of 100 to 1000 MPa with or without...
   • This type of high pressure applied at moderate temperatures is sometimes called pascalization because of its correlation with pasteurization (application of high temperatures at atmospheric pressure). - 2016, Jose...
