Thermal treatment in lychee color maintenance/Tratamento termico na manutencao da coloracao de lichias
The objective of the work was to evaluate the influence of the thermal treatment in the color of lychee fruits. The fruits were treated by 0; 5; 10; 15; 20 and 25 minutes of water immersion at 45°C, packaged in expanded polystyrene trays and film of polyvinyl chloride 0.020mm, stored in B.O.D. at 5°...

Zusammenfassung: | The objective of the work was to evaluate the influence of the thermal treatment in the color of lychee fruits. The fruits were treated by 0; 5; 10; 15; 20 and 25 minutes of water immersion at 45°C, packaged in expanded polystyrene trays and film of polyvinyl chloride 0.020mm, stored in B.O.D. at 5°C and 90±5 % of UR. The experimental delineation was in a completely randomized scheme, with 6 times of storage for the color and enzymatic analysis, until they reached the limit for the marketing for the analysis of the shelf-life, and the fruits were analyzed every 3 days, with 3 replications and 10 fruits in each experimental unity. The evaluated parameters were: visual analysis of the browning, color and specific activity of the polyphenol oxidase and the peroxidase. The treatments using 5 and 10 minutes of immersion showed the best results in maintaining the color of the fruits and in the reduction of the enzymatic activity. Index terms: Litchi chinensis, enzymatic browning, color. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar a influencia do tratamento termico na coloracao de frutos de lichia. Os frutos foram tratados por 0; 5; 10; 15; 20 e 25 minutos de imersao em agua a 45°C, embalados em bandejas de poliestireno expandido e filme de policloreto de vinila 0,020mm e armazenados em B.O.D. a 5°C e 90±5 % de UR. O delineamento experimental foi em esquema inteiramente casualizado, com 6 tempos de armazenamento para as analises de coloracao e enzimatica, e ate atingirem o limite de comercializacao para a analise da vida util, sendo os frutos analisados a cada 3 dias, com 3 repeticoes e 10 frutos por unidade experimental. Os parametros avaliados foram: analise visual do escurecimento, coloracao e atividade especifica da polifenol oxidase e da peroxidase. Os tratamentos usando 5 e 10 minutos de imersao foram os que apresentaram melhores resultados na manutencao da coloracao dos frutos e na diminuicao da atividade enzimatica. Termos para indexacao: Litchi chinensis, escurecimento enzimatico, cor. |
