Influence des traitements thermiques pour la désinsectisation de la mouche des fruits sur la qualité des oranges sanguines.

Quality of blood oranges following heat treatments for disinfesting fruit fly.

Résumé

A comparative study was carried out on response of blood oranges to hot moist fruit fly disinfestation at 44 or 46 °C inside the fruit for 100 and 50 minutes respectively. Fruits were then stored at 8 °C and 90-95% relative humidity for 2 weeks plus one additional week at 20 °C and 75% relative humidity. Weight losses and decay results were not affected, excepted for some cultivars. Heat treatments did not induce visible damage to the fruit, but caused a decrease in fruit firmness, a relevant loss in ascorbic acid concentration and negatively affected organoleptic acceptance, presumably because of the abnormal accumulation of ethanol and acetaldehyde in the juice.
