Our objective was to investigate ultrasound treatment of black grape juice affects its bioactive components due to using response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural network (ANN) optimization. At the same time, mineral components, sugar components, organic acids, and volatile aroma profiles were compared in black grape juice treated with thermal and ultrasound pasteurization. ANN showed superior predictive values (>99%) to RSM. Optimal combinations were obtained at 40 degrees C, 12 min, and 65% amplitude for thermosonication. Under these conditions, phenolic, flavonoid, antioxidant activity, and anthocyanin values were 822.80 mg GAE/L, 97.50 mg CE/L, 24.51 mmol Trolox/L, and 368, 81 mg of mv-3-glu/L, respectively. Thermosonicated grape juice (TT-BGJ) was tested against black grape juice (P-BGJ) produced with conventional thermal methods. This study investigated the effects of thermal pasteurization and thermosonication on black grape juice bioactive compounds and minerals, aroma profile, and sensory evaluation. Thermosonication affected the aroma profile less, 329.98 mu g/kg (P-BGJ) and 495.31 mu g/kg (TT-BGJ). TT-BGJ was detected to contain seven different mineral elements (Mn, K, Fe, Mg, Cu, Zn, and Na). Thermosonication caused an increase in Fe, Zn, Mn, and K minerals. Panelists generally liked the TT-BGJ sample. These results suggest that the thermosonication process may potentially replace the traditional black grape juice processing thermal process.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBlack grape juiceThermosonicationArtificial neural networkMineralAroma profileArticle993766281810.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e193142-s2.0-85168831733Q1WOS:001069266800001Q1
