Popis: | A study on the effect of starch-based edible coatings on shelf life and quality of minimally processed pummelo was conducted during storage at 4°C for 21 days. Starch-based coatings were developed from two types of native starches (rice and cassava) and mixed with two concentrations of pummelo juice (5 and 10% by volume) as anti-browning agents. It was found that the property of edible coating from cassava starch had a lower water vapor transmission rate of 785 g/m2/day compared with the coating modified from rice starch in which the water vapor transmission rate was 1,230 g/m2/day. Results showed that coated minimally processed pummelo had a lower weight loss of 4.8–7.7% compared to the control (non-coated minimally processed pummelo). Total sugars of minimally processed pummelo coated with rice and cassava starch increased. Titratable acidity and vitamin C content of minimally processed pummelo coated with rice and cassava starch was low compared to the control. The hue angle of surface color of minimal... |
