yellowing of Thai lime fruit Assoc Prof Dr Apiradee Uthairatanakij Ms Trinh Thi Chung The influence of hot water treatment combined with edible coating on yellowing of Thai lime fruit was studied In experiment 1, mature green limes (C aurantifolia Swingle) treated with hot water dipping (HWD) at 50oC for minutes and then dipped into solutions containing 1.0%, 5.0% and 10.0% Sta-Fresh 8711 for minutes In experiment 2, chitosan concentrations at 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0% were used to coat surface of lime fruits for lu minute after HWD Untreated fruits were used as a control Thereafter, the fruit were an stored at 25oC The combination of HWD and 10.0% Sta-Fresh could retain the highest hue n va angle value, likewise the L*, a*, b*, C* values were retarded, and coating reduced treatment which could reduce the percentage of weight loss and maintain the color quality in gh tn to percentage of weight loss during storage HWD combined with 1.0% chitosan was the best the lime peel Therefore, in order to evaluate the influence of combined treatments on quality ie p of lime fruit, the study continued a combination of the best treatment in experiments and with modified atmosphere packaging (PE bags and Active bags) stored at 13oC for 20 days w d oa nl The treatment combined with Sta-Fresh sealed in active bag induced a retarding chlorophyll content in both chlorophyll a and b Fruits treated in hot water dipping and Sta-Fresh has a lu brought positive effects on peel colour, content of titratable acid, respiration rate and pitting a nv of the lime peel Combination of hot water treatment and Sta-Fresh was recommended to ll storage u nf effectively controlling chlorophyll degradation and the quality of Thai lime fruit during oi m Date of submission 26/06/2017 tz a nh Number of pages Hot
