Response of Different Packaging and Storage Temperatures on Quality and Bioactive Compounds of Arils of Pomegranate cv. Bhagwa
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
Studies were conducted to evaluate the stability of arils of pomegranate cv. Bhagwa in different packaging and storage temperatures. Arils packed in PPMM (P3) recorded with high anthocyanin content (25.75 mg 100g-1) and β- carotene content (33.04 μg 100g-1), organoleptic score for colour (6.50), taste (6.25), flavour (6.17) and overall acceptability (6.08) with less microbial count (3.08 ×108CFU/ml) was observed. With respect to storage temperatures, arils stored at S1(1°C) recorded high anthocyanin content (26.80 mg 100g-1) and β-carotene content (36.71 μg 100g-1) and organoleptic score for colour (7.33), taste (8.22), flavour (7.44) and overall acceptability (6.89) of arils was recorded at 1°C with lowest microbial count (1.89 ×108CFU/ml). The interaction effect of packing and storage temperatures, revealed that, high anthocyanin content (27.60 mg 100g-1) and β-carotene content (38.14 μg 100g-1), organoleptic score for aril colour (8.00), taste (8.67), flavour (7.67) and overall acceptability (7.67) with lowest microbial count (1.67 ×108CFU/ml) were recorded in P3S1.
