Item type:Publication, Application of ultrasonic incorporated with calcium gluconate maintains physicochemical quality of pink guavas during short-term storage at room temperature(2022-03-01) ;Supapvanich, Suriyan ;Sittiprasert, WasettheeTechavuthiporn, ChairatThe effectiveness of simultaneous calcium gluconate (0.5% w/v) (Ca-G) and ultrasonication (Ca-G + US) on physicochemical quality of pink guavas under room temperature (27 ± 1 °C) was monitored. The fruits were sonicated for 2, 4, 6 and 8 min and the untreated fruits were defined as control. Peel discoloration and black spot disease were evidently controlled by Ca-G + US for 4 min. The treatment delayed the loss of acidity and total chlorophylls content and the increase in total carotenoids content. The fruit softening and cell membrane permeability and peroxidation were retarded by Ca-G + US for 4 min. Ca-G + US for 4 min enhanced ascorbic acid content and maintained total phenols content and antioxidant activity. In conclusion, the application of Ca-G + US for 4 min is feasible approach maintaining physicochemical quality such as peel color, texture and nutritional value of pink guavas during the short-term storage. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Calcium chloride and calcium gluconate peduncle infiltrations alleviate the internal browning of Queen pineapple in refrigerated storage(2018-04-01) ;Youryon, Pannipa ;Supapvanich, Suriyan ;Kongtrakool, PornprapaWongs-Aree, ChalermchaiThis study determined the effects of calcium chloride (CaCl<inf>2</inf>) and calcium gluconate (CaGlu) in alleviating the incidence of internal browning (IB) in ‘Queen’ pineapple (Ananas comosus) cv. ‘Sawi’ during storage at 13 °C. Pineapples were vertically peduncle-infiltrated with 2% CaCl<inf>2</inf> or 2% CaGlu for 48 h. IB and browning-related factors of tissue adjacent to the core were investigated after 7 and 14 days of cold storage followed by 2 days at room temperature. CaGlu treatment alleviated IB intensity and severity more effectively than CaCl<inf>2</inf>. CaCl<inf>2</inf> and CaGlu retarded membrane peroxidation and the activity of browning enzymes such as phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and polyphenol oxidase and increased the total phenols in the fruit. However, CaGlu-treated fruit had lower levels of tissue electrolyte leakage and lipoxygenase activity and higher antioxidant capacity and antioxidant enzyme activity. This evidence suggests that CaGlu peduncle infiltration is the preferred choice for alleviating IB in ‘Queen’ pineapple during low temperature storage.
