Natural mango puree and purees containing cysteine (Cys, 200 ppm) or ascorbic acid (AA, 500ppm)were treated at high hydrostatic pressure, HHP (379 to 586 MPa) for selected times (0, 0.033, 5, 10, 15and 20min) to assess changes in polyphenoloxidase (PPO) activity. Mango purees were stored at31 °C. Colour parameters (L*, a* and b*) were analysed to evaluate colour stability. PPO activity wasinhibited from 93.8 to 89.7 or 85.5 enzyme activity units (EAU) after adding AA or Cys, respectively.Such inhibition was improved after applying HHP, by an average of 69.510.6, 4.22.2 and 47.035.2EAU for natural purees, purees containing ascorbic acid or cysteine, respectively. No significant differences(p0.05) were observed in PPO activity at 448, 517 and 586 MPa after 10 or 20 min of treatmentfor natural mango puree and puree containing cysteine. The total colour difference (E*) increased asstorage time increased. However, this colour difference was barely noticeable (p0.05) after 27 days ofstorage for natural puree (9.10.9), puree containing ascorbic acid (8.81.2), and cysteine (16.43.5).
