Effects of Different Trehalose and Sorbitol Impregnation Methods on Freeze–Thaw Damage to Potato Slices

Fresh-cut potato slices are prone to browning. Although freezing is an effective method of preserving food, freezing and thawing cause inevitable damage to potato tissues. This study explored the freeze-protective effects of trehalose and sorbitol under atmospheric pressure impregnation and vacuum impregnation by analyzing their influences on the cell structural and textural characteristics of frozen–thawed potato slices. The results showed that both trehalose and sorbitol can significantly...
