Sugarcane juice was analysed for the two different treatments such as ohmic heating and conventional heating. The study analysis showed that the total plate count decreased with severity of ohmic heating treatment which reduced from 6.3 to 3.47 log cfu/ml for 90° C and 15 min treatment. So observing the PPO inactivation, colour change and microbial reduction of the treated samples into consideration, ohmic heating of sugarcane juice at 70°C for 3 min holding time was found to be optimum. Hence, highest microbial reduction was observed in ohmic heating treatment than conventional heating treatment.
