Abstract:
... The study was performed to assess chemical-physical and sensory quality changes in 4±1°C stored fresh-cut mangos and to test the effect of active modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) with different gas partial pressures. Sicilian fruits of 'Keitt' mango (Mangifera indica L.) were immerged in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) after being peeled. Next, the flesh was cut in cubes and dipped in citric acid (0.5 ...

Subject:
antioxidant activity; astringency; carbon dioxide; catechol oxidase; cell walls; cultivars; intercellular spaces; mechanical damage; microstructure; persimmons; tannins
Abstract:
... Flesh browning caused by mechanical damage is one of the most important disorders during shelf-life of persimmon 'Rojo Brillante', which is an astringent cultivar. Our previous studies have shown that browning manifestation is influenced by the level of astringency of the fruit; the present work studies the implication of polyphenol oxidase activity and total antioxidant capacity. Astringent and n ...

Subject:
antioxidant activity; ascorbic acid; boron; carbon dioxide; catechol oxidase; cell membranes; fruits; lipid content; lipid peroxidation; membrane permeability; mineral content; oxygen; pears
Abstract:
... Under CO2 -enriched CA-storage conditions 'Conference' pear is susceptible to internal flesh browning disorders, such as brownheart and cavities. The effect of pre-harvest boron (B) application on the occurrence of these disorders and on the enzymatic antioxidative activities concerned with ascorbate metabolism and on the lipid peroxidation of membranes in pear fruits stored under high CO2 CA cond ...
