Description
Summary:碩士 === 輔仁大學 === 食品營養學系 === 82 === Physical-chemical changes in 2 cultivars guava (cv.Chung-sun & cv.Bai-ba) during periods of development, maturation and ripening were investigated. Effect of heat processing in guava puree also studied. During development and maturation chlorophyll content of peel decreased, sugars content ( fructose, glucose, sucrose), total soluble solids, ascorbic acid, Brix-acid ratio increased and titratable acidity, nonvolatile organic acids, tannin, formol nitrogen decreased. Pectic substances changed during development and maturation. Water-soluble pectin increased and NaOH soluble pectin decreased. 47 components of volatile were identified, and hydrocarbones predominant. Hydrocarbons, carbonyls decrease and esters increased during development. Alcohols decreased during maturation. Post-harvest changes in guava fruit were not all the same as maturation. During storage sugars content slightly decreased, total soluble solids, ascorbic acid and Brix-acid ratio increased. Tannins and formol nitrogen changed slightly. Changes of pectic substances during storage were similar to changes during ripening. Water-soluble pectin increased and NaOH soluble decreased. Volatile content increased then decreased during storage. Esters content remarkably increased. Total soluble solid, Brix-acid ratio, ascorbic acid and esters content of post-harvest guava were higher than yellow soft guava harvested from tree. Guava fruit during 3 day''s ripening maintained good quality to be processed. After heating at 95 ℃, 45sec, Hunter L, a, b of guava puree increased and formol value lost. Effect of heat processing on viscosity in 2 cultivar was different. The viscosity of cv.Chung-sun decreased and of cv.Bai-ba increased after heat processing. NaOH soluble pectin decreased. Water-soluble pectin of cv.Chung-sun decreased and of cv.Bai-ba increased. Volatile content, especially carbonyls, lost after heat processing.
