Creep behaviour of tomato pericarp tissue as influenced by ambient temperature ripening and chilled storage.
Author(s) : JACKMAN R. L., STANLEY D. W.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The influence of normal ripening and chilling stress on the viscoelastic properties of tomato pericarp tissue were investigated by measuring creep behaviour of tissue from fruits stored at 22 deg C (nonchilled) or 5 deg C (chilled) for 28 days, or at 5 deg C for 16 days prior to transfer to 22 deg C for an additional 12 days (prechilled). The physico-mechanical changes in prechilled tissue preceded those in non-chilled tissue by several days, and occurrred at a faster rate. Multiple mechanisms of softening were consolidated into a single physico-mechanical model.
