Resumo
Os filmes e revestimentos biodegradáveis são usados para revestir os alimentos, agindo como barreira à umidade e a gases, reduzindo a respiração e as perdas de água por transpiração e desidratação, além do escurecimento enzimático, e mantendo as características do alimento, com aumento da vida de prateleira. Este trabalho teve como objetivos reunir informações sobre o uso da quitosana como revestimento de frutas e vegetais, visando dar suporte ao trabalho experimental; avaliar maçãs revestidas com quitosana comercial, durante o armazenamento à temperatura ambiente, simulando as condições de comercialização das frutas para o mercado interno; avaliar maçãs revestidas com quitosana comercial durante 6 meses de armazenamento sob atmosfera controlada e baixa temperatura, condições de estocagem das frutas para o mercado externo, seguido de armazenamento por 30 dias em atmosfera ambiente e baixa temperatura, visando simular o transporte das frutas para o mercado consumidor no exterior, e posteriormente estocadas à temperatura ambiente, simulando as condições de comercialização; e avaliar maçãs revestidas com quitosana modificada, quando submetidas à temperatura ambiente, visando prolongar a vida de prateleira durante a comercialização, após 6 meses de armazenamento sob atmosfera controlada e baixa temperatura, seguidos de armazenamento por 30 dias em atmosfera ambiente e baixa temperatura. Maçãs ‘Royal Gala’ foram produzidas na safra de 2009, e após a colheita foram separadas em 3 lotes, sendo as frutas do 1o lote revestidas com quitosana comercial; as do 2o lote imersas em solução de ácido acético, que foram usadas como branco e as maçãs do 3o lote não receberam tratamento e foram usadas como controle. Após 6 meses de armazenamento sob atmosfera controlada e baixa temperatura, seguido de mais 30 dias de armazenamento em atmosfera ambiente...
The films and biodegradable coatings are used to coat the food, acting as a barrier to moisture and gases, reducing the respiration and water loss by transpiration and dehydration in addition to the enzymatic browning, maintaining the characteristics of food, with increased of shelf life. This study aimed to gather information about the use of chitosan as a coating for fruits and vegetables, aiming to support the experimental work; evaluate apples coated with commercial chitosan coating during storage at ambient temperature, simulating the real conditions of sale of the fruit for the domestic market; evaluate apples coated with commercial chitosan during 6 months of storage under controlled atmosphere and low temperature, storage conditions of fruit for the export market, followed by 30 days storage under at ambient and low temperature, in order to simulate the transport of fruit to the consumer market abroad, and subsequently stored at ambient temperature, simulating the conditions of marketing; and evaluate apples coated with modified chitosan, at ambient temperature, in order to prolong the shelf life during marketing after six months storaged under controlled atmosphere and low temperature, followed by another 30 days storage under at ambient atmosphere and low temperature. ‘Royal Gala’ apples were produced in 2009 crop and after the harvest they were separated into 3 lots, the first batch of fruit coated with commercial chitosan, those from second lot were immersed in an acetic acid solution and used as blank and the third lot of apples used as controls received no treatment. After 6 storage months under controlled atmosphere and low temperature, followed by another 30 days storage under at ambient atmosphere and low temperature apples without any treatment were separated in 2 lots, being the first batch of fruit coated with modified chitosan, and the second batch used as controls...
