Effet des traitements après-récolte de certains sels de calcium sur la durée de conservation et la qualité des oranges de Valence (Citrus sinensis L.) pendant le stockage à froid.

Effect of postharvest treatments of some calcium salts on shelf-life and quality of "Valencia" orange fruits (Citrus sinensis L.) during cold storage.

Résumé

Fruits were treated with calcium compounds and held at 5 °C and 90% relative humidity. The results showed that increasing calcium salt concentrations caused a gradual prolongation in the shelf life of fruits. It also showed a reduction of the percentage of loss in fruit weight and fruit total soluble solids as well as total and reducing sugars, while the concentration of vitamin C and the total acidity percentage in fruit juice were increased. The best results were obtained due to dipping the fruits for five minutes in a solution of calcium chloride at 2% and storing them at 5 °C and 90% relative humidity.
