标题:EFFECT OF SOME POSTHARVEST TREATMENTS ON PHYSICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF ANAMUR BANANAS (Musa acuminata Colla (AAA GROUP) DURING SHELF-LIFE PERIOD
摘要:Effects of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatments on physical and biochemical properties of Anamur bananas during shelf life period were investigated. The fruits treated with 1-MCP sustained better brightness and green color, measured with L* and a* values, respectively, than did the MAP treated and non-treated fruits. Exposure to 1-MCP delayed changes in skin color and flesh softening of bananas. CO 2 production steadily increased over time, with the lowest rate in 1-MCP treated samples. The lowest ethylene production was observed in the fruits treated with 1-MCP. The PPO activity in 1-MCP and MAP treated fruit flesh was erratic.
