Summary

The effect of different final pressures (400 about 800 Pa) on the vacuum cooling performances of sliced dragon fruits was studied. The cooling rate, weight loss and typical property changes (water binding capacity, pH value, hardness, color and luster) during the storage period of 72 hours at 4°C. The results indicate that effects of final pressures on cooling rate and weight loss were not significant. However, increasing final pressure in the certain range can delay the changes of water binding capacity, pH value, hardness, color and luster. The conclusion was drawn that 700 about 800 Pa is considered as the best final pressure interval since the sliced dragon fruit cooled under these pressures can be stored for 60 hours at 4°C without significant quality change.
