Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Sorbitol-chelated calcium significantly inhibited loss of fresh-cut firmness and pectin content.
- Intervention effect T2 maintained fresh-cut hardness 35.71% above CK on day 12.
- Intervention effect T2 maintained soluble pectin 15.42% above CK on day 12.
- Intervention effect T2 cellulose was 27.08% below CK.
- Observation T2 pulp cell surfaces remained intact and the middle lamella was preserved.
- Intervention effect T2 promoted expression of aroma-related genes during storage.
- Intervention effect Sorbitol-chelated calcium preserved color and reduced browning and microbial spoilage.
- Mechanism The authors attribute quality preservation to calcium-mediated crosslinking and suppression of pectin degradation and cellulose accumulation.
- Mechanism The authors attribute volatile synthesis to activation of AAT1, AAT2, and LOX.
