MICROSTRUCTURAL CHANGES OF 'ROCHA' PEAR FOLLOWING STORAGE UNDER CONTROLLED ATMOSPHERE
2008
Acta Horticulturae
This research effort was aimed at evaluating the influence of storage (for 4 mo at 2°C), under various controlled atmospheres (viz. 1.9 kPa O2 + 4.9 kPa CO2, 1.9 kPa O2 + 0.5 kPa C02 and 1.9 kPa O2 + 0 kPa C02), on the microstructure of 'Rocha' pear. Toward this goal, the morphology of cellular disassembly, as well as the quantity of granules and intercellular space using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), were tentatively correlated with sensory and instrumental firmness, by 1, 6 and 8 d of
