The aim of this work was to assess the profile volatile compounds in 'Royal Gala' apples stored under controlled atmosphere (CA), with O(2) levels ranging from 1.0kPa as low 0.5kPa during 8months (0.5°C), followed by 7days shelf-life at 20°C. Volatile were collected via solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and analysed gas chromatography. Straight branched-chain esters exhibited a distinct pattern. emission straight-chain decreased extremely (0.5kPa), while not significantly affected such...
The aim of the present work was to compare effect ultralow oxygen (ULO) with dynamic controlled atmosphere (DCA) and (CA) on post storage quality 'Royal Gala' 'Galaxy' apples after long-term storage. Two experiments were carried out apples, in years 2012 2013, respectively. A higher internal ethylene concentration observed fruits stored under CA; intermediate ULO; lowest by DCA-CF (DCA based chlorophyll fluorescence). Flesh firmness ULO differing from CA, year 2012, but 2013 showed highest...
The effects of dynamic controlled atmosphere (DCA) storage based on chlorophyll fluorescence (DCA-CF) and respiratory quotient (DCA-RQ) the quality volatile profile 'Royal Gala' apple were evaluated. DCA reduces ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate) oxidase activity, ethylene production respiration rate apples stored for 9months at 1.0°C plus 7days 20°C, resulting in higher flesh firmness, titratable acidity lesser physiological disorders, provided a proportion healthy fruit. Storage...
Apples (Malus domestica, Borkh.) which are not stored at low temperature or in a properly controlled atmosphere (CA) may have high metabolic rate during the postharvest stage resulting losses quality. The aim of this study was to evaluate quality 'Royal Gala' apple fruit accordance with new method dynamic (DCA).The respiratory quotient (RQ) monitored two temperatures were then compared using commercially available technology based on chlorophyll fluorescence DCA (DCA-CF) and static CA....
The objective of this study was to evaluate the interaction between controlled atmosphere (CA), CA + 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and dynamic monitored by respiratory quotient (DCA-RQ) with three fruit maturity stages at harvest (early date, optimal date late date) on 'Galaxy' apple metabolism quality after 9 months storage plus 7 days shelf life 20 °C. Fruit stored under 1.3 (DCA-RQ 1.3) showed lower ethylene production, respiration rate, mealiness higher flesh firmness in comparison fruit,...
Abstract This research investigates the impact of storage conditions on quality and preservation 'Shalimar' apples, a relatively new cultivar known for its resistance to apple scab powdery mildew. The study explores efficacy different techniques such as regular atmosphere (RA), controlled (CA), dynamic with CO 2 Monitoring (DCA-CD), well integration 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) at temperatures (1 °C 3 °C). Various fruit parameters were monitored under conditions, including firmness,...
