Lin Shen Food Science 2012
Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Control cucumbers accumulated MDA and showed increasing chilling injury and electrolyte leakage during cold storage.
- Observation H2O2, SOD and CAT initially increased and then declined in cold stored cucumbers.
- Observation POD and APX activity decreased over storage time.
- Intervention effect Heat treatment alleviated cucumber chilling injury.
- Intervention effect Heat treatment increased early endogenous H2O2.
- Intervention effect Heat treatment postponed MDA accumulation.
- Intervention effect Heat treatment increased CAT, APX and SOD activities.
- Intervention effect Heat treatment had no significant effect on POD activity.
- Intervention effect DMTU counteracted heat-induced chilling tolerance, with higher injury index and MDA.
- Mechanism The authors suggest H2O2 mediated heat-induced chilling resistance.
