Effet de l'épaisseur du film et de la température sur la perte d'eau et la qualité des oranges emballées.

Effects of film thickness and storage temperature on water loss and internal quality of film-packaged oranges.

Auteurs : LAMBRINOS G., MANOLOPOULOU H.

Résumé

Tests were performed on Navel oranges dipped in 500 ppm TBZ and sealed in medium density polyethylene films of various thicknesses, then stored at different temperatures. Control fruits were also studied. The test results show that packaging reduced weight loss. Packaging reduced weight loss of oranges more than cooling. Also diameter and peel thickness decrease were reduced because of the packaging in plastic film. Juice volatile content was increasing during storage. Juice ethanol content was significantly increased by storage at 20 °C. The oranges kept at 20 °C had higher ethanol contents than those kept at 5 °C. The films used in the study did not appear to have any deleterious effect on the fruit but the quality of oranges is mainly affected by storage temperature.
