The sensory quality and TPA parameters of apple in different storage were measured, and the textural characteristics were analyzed using Texture profile analysis (TPA) and sensory quality evaluation. To explore the correlation between TPA parameters and sensory index of apple, the prediction models of each sensory index were established by stepwise regression analysis and then were verified. The results indicated that apple TPA parameters has a certain correlation with its sensory index, especially with taste quality(the r-value of the hardness, viscosity, elasticity, cohesiveness, chewiness and resilience were 0.992 3,0.991 9,0.936 8,0.952 3,0.951 3, and 0.936 5, respectively) and feel quality(the …
