HEAT SHOCK REDUCES BOTH CHILLING INJURY AND THE OVERPRODUCTION OF REACTIVE OXYGEN SPECIES IN YELLOW PITAYA (HYLOCEREUS MEGALANTHUS) FRUITS

Journal of Food Quality, 2011
ABSTRACTYellow pitaya fruits were heat‐shocked (25C/24 h), stored at 2C for 14 days and then held for 13 days at 18C. Chilling injury (CI), respiration rate, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide anion radical (O2•‐) and lipid peroxidation product (LPP) levels were measured.
