Mechanism of Surface White Discoloration of Peeled (Minimally Processed) Carrots During Storage
A proposed mechanism of white discoloration development on peeled carrots included both physical and physiological responses to wounding. The physical response is a color change due to reversible surface dehydration. This study was performed at 2.5 and 10°C using a mode1 system controlling relative humidity, at 33, 75 or 98%, and a commercial system with low-density polyethylene (LDPE) plastic ...
متن کاملA Study on the Shelf Life of Minimally Processed Apple with Edible Coatings
In this experiment the effect of edible coating (apricot gum) was used to extend the shelf life of apple slices. The edible coating was applied at different concentrations i.e. 0.5, 1, 2 and 3%. Physicochemical characteristics of edible coated apple slices were analyzed at different time intervals. The analysis was carried out for 12 days with an interval of 4 days. Results showed that the trea...
متن کاملHygroscopic Coatings Control Surface White Discoloration of Peeled (Minimally Processed) Carrots During Storage
White discoloration on peeled carrots is partially due to surface dehydration which can be controlled with hygroscopic coatings: e.g., polyhydric alcohols and salt solutions. This study was performed at 2.5, 7.5, 10, and 157C, using a model system controlling relative humidity at 33, 75 or 98% or a commercial system with low-density polyethylene (LDPE) plastic film bags. The moisture sorption p...
متن کاملEffect of Lactoperoxidase System on Microbiological and Quality Markers of Minimally Processed Lettuce
Minimally processed lettuce is sensitive to microbial attack caused by the loss of natural resistance and their high water content and nutrients. The use of natural anti-microbial agents such as the lactoperoxidase system (LPS) represents an interesting alternative to the use of chemical treatments. This study focused on the importance of LPS and its efficiency as a bioprotective agent. The eff...
