EFFECTS OF COATINGS ON FRUIT-QUALITY OF AMASYA APPLES

1995-01-01
Apples were coated with different concentrations of Semperfresh(TM) just after harvest to determine the effect of this coating on the shelf-life and quality criteria of apples. Treated apples showed a delay in the change of firmness, titrateable acidity, vitamin C content soluble solid content and weight loss compared to untreated ones. Apples obtained from cold storage (0-1 degrees C and 90% RH) were coated with three commercial coatings; Semperfresh(TM) (10 g/L), Fomesa(TM) and Jonfresh(TM) to compare the efficiency of these coatings on quality criteria and poststorage-life of apples. All of the coatings were effective in reducing the rate of weight, ascorbic acid, colour and firmness change and in increasing post storage life. There was not much quality difference in coated fruits for different kinds of coatings. (C) 1995 Academic Press Limited

EFFECTS OF SUCROSE POLYESTER COATING ON FRUIT-QUALITY OF APRICOTS (PRUNUS-ARMENAICA (L))
Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (Wiley, 1995-04-01)
Mature apricots were coated with different concentrations of a mixture containing sucrose polyesters (Semperfresh(TM) fruit coating) to determine the effect of that coating on shelf-life, post-storage life and quality of apricots. Respiration rates, weight loss, colour change, variations in soluble solids, ascorbic acid content, titratable acidity and pH of apricots were effectively reduced by both the 10 g litre(-1) and 15 g litre(-1) concentrations during ambient storage. After 10 days of cold storage bot...
QUALITY-CONTROL CHARTS FOR STORAGE OF APRICOTS
Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; OZILGEN, M (1994-09-01)
Construction of modified Shewhart charts to monitor quality variations of apricots coated with edible sucrose polyesters in storage are described by using data based on changes in weight, soluble solids, pH, ascorbic acid, and Hunter colour scale. These control charts may be used to maintain the inevitable quality loss within acceptable limits, and make it possible to readjust the storage conditions if the acceptable limits should be violated.
Effects of edible chitosan coating on quality parameters of pomegranate (punica granatum) arils
Can Çetin, Ayça; Yıldız, Fatih; Bayındırlı, Alev; Department of Food Engineering (2012)
The effects of edible chitosan coating on quality factors of pomegranate (Punica granatum) arils were investigated in the present research. For that purpose, pomegranate arils were treated with 0% (control) and 1% chitosan (extracted from shrimp shells and deacetylated (.75%)) solutions and stored at 4 } 0.5 oC for 22 days. The weight loss, pH, total soluble solids, titratable acidity, total phenolic content, total radical scavenging capacity, total anthocyanin content, total mesophilic aerobic bacteria, t...
EFFECTS OF SEMPERFRESH(TM) AND JOHNFRESH(TM) FRUIT COATINGS ON POSTSTORAGE QUALITY OF ANKARA PEARS
Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (Wiley, 1994-08-01)
Pears were coated with different concentrations of Semperfresh or with Johnfresh edible coatings after storage for five months at 0C to determine the effects of coatings on poststorage quality. Coating levels were effective for extending the poststorage life and delaying ripening. Both Semperfresh and Johnfresh treated pears had better color, firmness, ascorbic acid, titratable acidity, soluble solid retention than control pears. Although Semperfresh was effective for the reduction of respiration and weight...
Effects of xanthan and guar gums on quality and staling of gluten free cakes baked in microwave-infrared combination oven
Köksel, Havva Filiz; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Department of Food Engineering (2009)
The objective of this study was to determine the effects of different gums, gum concentrations and their combination on quality and staling of gluten free cakes baked in microwave-infrared combination oven and conventional oven. In the first part of the study, the effects of different gums (xanthan and guar gum) at different concentrations (0.3%, 0.6% and 1.0%) and their blend on quality of gluten free cakes baked in microwave-infrared combination and conventional oven were investigated. The gelatinization ...
