배의 저장성 향상 방법 구명 측면에서 수확한 화산 배에 16시간 동안 1-MCP 처리(0, 0.5, 1.5 ppm) 후 상온() 저장기간에 따른 품질 특성을 조사하였다. 저장전과 저장 8주 후의 과피 색도는 Hunter L, a 및 b값 모두 1-MCP 1.5 ppm 처리구에서 변화가 가장 적었다. 관능평가 값은 1-MCP 0 ppm 처리구는 4주째까지, 0.5 ppm 처리구는 6주째 까지, 1.5 ppm 처리구는 7주째까지 좋다 이상의 수준으로
We investigated the effects of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment (0, 0.5, and 1.5 ppm) for 16 hours, followed by storage at ambient temperature, on the qualities of pears (Pyrus pyrifolia c.v. "Hwasan"). Color differences, as measured using the Hunter L, a, and b values, showed the greatest decreases before storage, and 8 weeks after storage, when fruit was exposed to 1.5 ppm 1-MCP. The sensory qualities of c.v. "Hwasan" pears were good until 4 weeks of storage after treatment with 0 ppm 1-MCP, until 6 weeks when 0.5 ppm 1-MCP was employed, and until 7 weeks when 1.5 ppm 1-MCP treatment was performed. Fruit and storage quality in terms of all of hardness, sugar content, PPO activity, respiration amount, and ethylene production increased in the 8 weeks after application of 1.5 ppm 1-MCP. Consequently, it seems that 1-MCP treatment, especially at 1.5 ppm, before storage of pears at ambient temperature, effectively improves the quality of pears of c.v. "Hwasan".
