Abstract

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of hot water and chemicals on the quality and shelf life of Amrapali variety of mango at Agriculture and Forestry University, Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal. The experiment was laid out in completely randomized design with 6 treatments and 4 replications. Physiologically matured mango fruits (200±20 g) were treated with distilled water for 10 minutes, hot water @ 50°C for 10 minutes, hot water @ 55°C for 10 minutes, carbendazim solution @ 0.1% for 10 minutes and Sodium hypochlorite solution @ 100 ppm for 2 minutes. The untreated fruits were considered as control treatment. The highest total soluble solid (18.15°Brix), the lowest physiological loss in weight (24.20%) and the lowest spoilage loss (42.05%) were observed in fruits treated with hot water at 55°C. Therefore, the post-harvest treatment of mango fruits with hot water at 55°C for 10 minutes was found to be effective for maintaining the quality and shelf life of mango.

化学药剂和热水处理对Amrapali芒果品质和保质期的影响

在尼泊尔奇旺兰布尔农林大学进行了热水和化学药剂对Amrapali品种芒果品质和保质期的影响试验。试验采用完全随机设计，6个处理，4个重复。生理成熟的芒果果实(200±20 g)分别用蒸馏水、50°C热水、55°C热水、0.1%多菌灵溶液、100 ppm次氯酸钠溶液处理10分钟。未处理的果实作为对照处理。55°C热水处理的果实总可溶性固形物最高(18.15°Brix)，生理重量损失最低(24.20%)，腐败损失最低(42.05%)。因此，芒果果实采后用55℃的热水处理10分钟，可以有效地保持芒果的品质和保质期。
