Refrigerated storage of the fruits of the buriti (Mauritia flexuosa L.)
The objective of this study was to evaluate different storage conditions to maximize the shelf-life of buriti fruits; under ambient conditions the fruits last only 2-3 days. Buriti fruits were stored refrigerated at 10, 12 and 15oC with 85±5% relative humidity, and at room temperature (23±5°C) and...

Buriti fruits were stored refrigerated at 10, 12 and 15oC with 85±5% relative humidity, and at room temperature (23±5°C) and 60±5% relative humidity. Fruits were analyzed every three days over a 12-day period for weight loss, respiratory activity, soluble solids, pH, titratable acidity, lipids, protein and fiber. Under the considered conditions, refrigeration at 15oC was found to give the best results. https://oaj.fupress.net/index.php/ahs/article/view/2993Brazilian cerradoburiti: Mauritia flexuosa |
