Physiological Response Of ‘Fuji’ Apples To Irradiation And The Effect On Quality, Nasim Kheshti, Anderson Adriano Martins Melo, Alan Baquero Cedeno, David Obenland, Anuradha Prakash

Food Science Faculty Articles and Research

The objective of this study was to determine the influence of irradiation-induced physiological responses on quality parameters in ‘Fuji’ apples. Apples were treated at 377 and 1148 Gy, stored for 7 days at 1 °C to mimic ground transportation to Mexico and another 7 days at ambient temperature to simulate retail and consumer storage conditions. Irradiation suppressed ethylene production, especially in the 1148 Gy treated apples, which was consistent with lower activities of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase (ACO). A dose-dependent increase in respiration rate corresponded with decreases in titratable acidity (TA) and organic acids. Higher electrolyte leakage in apples irradiated at the …
