Other claims from this paper (6)
- Method / resource The chlorophyll a calibration was linear over 0.1‐1.0 μg.
- Method / resource The chlorophyll b calibration was linear over 0.1‐0.7 μg.
- Method / resource Recovery of added chlorophyll a from kiwi fruit was 79.4%.
- Observation Total chlorophyll a and b in four kiwi fruit cultivars fell from 2000‐3000 μg/ 100g early in growth to about 1000 μg after four months.
- Mechanism The decline in total chlorophyll during kiwi fruit growth was mainly due to chlorophyll a decline.
- Observation Total chlorophyll content decreased gradually during kiwi fruit postharvest ripening.
