高CO2气调储藏对大米食用品质调控效应的研究

以W45号大米为试材,定量控制储藏环境中的O2和CO2浓度,研究10℃和30℃条件下,高浓度CO2储藏6个月对大米不溶性直链淀粉含量及蒸煮品质的影响。结果表明:在低温10℃、O2浓度8%条件下,高浓度CO2可有效抑制大米不溶性直链淀粉含量的增加,CO2浓度作用效果20%10%2%,其中20%CO2气调储藏大米的不溶性直链淀粉含量与初始值相比仅增加了9.39%,显著低于对照(不充气处理);在高温30℃、O2浓度8%条件下,高浓度CO2调控大米不溶性直链淀粉的效应不显著;在10℃、30℃温度储藏条件下,高CO2处理均可显著提高大米的蒸煮品质,抑制大米的加热吸水率,增加米汤可溶性固形物含量,CO2浓度越高效果越明显,其中20%CO2处理在10℃条件下加热吸水率比对照下降了12.71%,米汤可溶性固形物含量比对照增加了24.56%。     

Preharvest and postharvest factors related to off-odours of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce

The influence of different preharvest and postharvest factors affecting off-odour development of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce in low-O₂ modified atmospheres (MA) was investigated. Fresh-cut iceberg lettuce developed undesirable off-odours under low O₂ and elevated CO₂ atmospheres. A strong relationship between CO₂ concentration and off-odour development was observed. Significant differences in off-odour development existed among different cultivars in two harvests in consecutive years. The influence of maturity stage was evaluated, comparing fresh-cut product from immature and over-mature heads with commercial ones. Higher CO₂ concentrations and higher accumulation of ethanol and acetaldehyde were detected in the headspace of MA-packed lettuce from immature heads. Differences in respiration rate of the fresh-cut product from heads cultivated during the winter–spring seasons were around 30%. Respiration rate of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce increased when medium temperature during cultivation increased. Changes in the product weight generated different CO₂ levels which correlated with the production of ethanol and acetaldehyde and other off-odour metabolites related with the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway such as hexanal, 1-hexanol, and cis-3-hexen-1-ol. Volatile compounds such as cis-3-hexen-1-ol, β-elemene, ethyl acetate and dimethyl sulphide increased their content more than 10 times compared with other volatiles. Moreover, differences in the initial flushed gas-mixture with or without CO₂ showed higher CO₂ concentrations and the development of stronger off-odours when samples were flushed with an enriched CO₂ gas-mixture. In summary, visual quality of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce is important but so are odour and flavour. MAP currently used for fresh-cut lettuce may need some modification to inhibit off-odours and achieve better aroma and flavour qualities for preserving “freshness” of the cut product. Screening for cultivars with low browning potential and fermentation, harvested at optimum maturity stage and with an adequate package design are recommended.     

Fast curing: A method to improve postharvest quality of onions in hot climate harvest

Most of the onions (Allium cepa cv. Orlando) grown in southern Israel are treated with maleic hydrazide before storage, and are cold-stored for up to 8 months with minimal losses to rots or sprouting. Nevertheless, in most cases the complete dry outer skin (tunic) cracks and loosens, and tends to fall off during storage. To improve onion postharvest quality, bulbs were harvested at 80–100% green leaf drop (top-down), leaving about 10 cm of neck above the bulb. The early harvest reduced skin cracks in 93% of the bulbs, resulting in a sturdy tunic beneath the muddy outer skin. We applied fast curing (FC) at 30 °C and 98% RH for up to 9 days postharvest: the onion neck became 52% narrower after 6 days, similar to the effect of 5 months of cold storage. FC also changed the color of the treated onion bulbs’ outer skin to a darker reddish brown. FC of onions harvested with a long neck and stored for 290 days reduced weight loss and rot by 30% and 80%, respectively, as compared to non-FC onions. The better onion quality induced by FC was accompanied by an increased number of onion skin layers (from an average of 1.8 to 4) and a higher force needed to tear the tunic (average 4.8 N as compared to 3.5 N in the control). FC compressed the effects of 5 months of cold storage into a few days, since most of the bulb neck and tunic changes measured during FC occurred only after long cold storage without FC. Although emission of the lachrymatory factor was not affected by FC, it markedly increased after 5 months of storage. Histological observation showed that FC keeps the onion tunic and inner fleshy scales intact and ensures postharvest quality, even after 8 months of cold storage. The high temperature used for FC can be reached in hot-climate storage areas with minimal energy investment.
