감귤의 수확 후 저장, 유통과정에서 부패 억제 및 품질유지 효과를 얻기 위하여 환경친화적 방법으로서 중-고온 예조처리의 적용 가능성을 확인하고자, 조생종 온주 감귤의 열풍처리에 따른 저장 중 품질특성 변화를 살펴보았다. 45에서 2, 4, 6시간 동안 열풍을 가한 다음, 충분히 냉각시킨 감귤을 통기성 천공 LDPE 필름에 포장하여 5에서 3주, 18에서 1주간저장하면서 호흡률, 과실내부 기체조성,pH, 산도, 가용성 고형분 함량, 과피 표면색,
Early harvested Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu) was treated with hot air at 45 for 2, 4, and 6 hours and stored at 5 for 3 weeks and additional one week at 18 (simulated shelf-life) in order to examine the effect of mild heat treatment on the storage quality of the citrus fruits. Quality attributes of the sample fruits evaluated during storage included the respiration rate, internal gas composition, pH, titratable acidity, soluble solids content, flesh weight loss, firmness, peel color, decay ratio, and sensory properties. The initial respiration rates, just after hot air treatment, were significantly higher in the heat-treated fruits compared to the untreated. However, during storage at 5, the respiration rates showed a similar level in all treatments. Internal gas composition exhibited no significant difference between the heat-treated and untreated samples. Hot air treatment also exerted no significant effects on the pH, titratable acidity, soluble solid contents, flesh weight loss, firmness, and peel color of the fruits during the whole storage period. The decay ratio was manifestly lower in the heat-treated fruits than the untreated. For sensory attributes including visual and organoleptic quality, no significant difference was observed among sample fruits. Results suggested that mild heat treatment with hot air at 45 for 4-6 hours could be used as an effective preconditioning method to keep the postharvest quality of Satsuma mandarin by reducing the decay incidence remarkably during storage.
