High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is a nonthermal preservation technology for inactivating foodborne pathogens and spoilage organisms. The commercial use of HHP is generally performed at pressures of 400–600 MPa, at ambient initial temperature for less than 6 min. Moreover, at least 5 log10 reduction of target pathogen is required for safe HHP‐treate...
