Consumers demand high quality, ­minimally-processed, additive-free and microbiologically-safe foods. The application of non-thermal food processing techniques, such as ultra-high hydrostatic pressure and gamma irradiation, is developing rapidly. The effects of ultra-high hydrostatic pressure (UHP) and gamma irradiation treatments were investigated on fresh samples of liquid egg white. Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy was used in order to monitor quality changes caused by the applied treatments.
