Changes of postharvest quality in passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) under modified atmosphere packaging conditions
The modified atmosphere packaging technique was explored in order to investigate the changes of passion fruit quality during low temperature storage. Three different types of packaging condition were used in this experiment. They were (i) P-UAP, a perforated low density polyethylene (LDPE), (ii) MAP-1, a LDPE with an oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of 1400016000 cm3/m2∙day∙atm, and (iii) MAP-2, ...
متن کاملAlleviating effect of exogenous nitric oxide in cucumber seedling against chilling stress
Nitric oxide (NO) is a bioactive and a multifunctional gaseous molecule signal playing a central role and mediating variety of physiological processes in plants. In this study, the protective effect against chilling stress of exogenously applied sodium nitroprusside (SNP, a NO donor) in Cucumis sativus L. cv ZND407 and cv ZND461 was investigated. The SNP was sprayed over cucumber seedlings usin...
متن کاملPawpaw Fruit Chilling Injury and Antioxidant Protection
Pawpaw (Asimina triloba) fruit stored longer than 4 weeks at 4 8C fail to ripen normally and may develop internal discoloration, indicative of chilling injury (CI). To determine if loss of antioxidant protection in the fruit tissue during cold storage could be the cause of these problems, the levels of total, reduced, and oxidized glutathione and ascorbate and the key enzymes glutathione reduct...
متن کاملoptimal packaging conditions to prolong shelf life of lettuce (lactuca sativa l.) in a modified atmosphere
food preservation has always been a concern for mankind. different methods have been developed to preserve food for long periods, such as cold storage, plastic covers, and modified atmospherethis study examined the physicochemical and biological effects of a modified atmosphere on packaged romaine lettuce at three levels (g1: 40% oxygen, 15% carbon dioxide, 45% nitrogen; g2: 70% oxygen, 15% car...
متن کاملModified Atmosphere Packaging for Postharvest Storage of Mushrooms. A Review
Production and consumption of edible mushrooms have grown continuously in the last fifteen years, particularly due to interest in their nutritional and health benefits. The three most cultivated mushrooms worldwide are Agaricus bisporus (common mushrooms), Lentinus edodes (shiitake) and Pleurotus spp. (oyster mushroom). Mushrooms are highly perishable. They tend to lose quality right after harv...
