Abstract
The objective of this research was to develop a microwave-vapor heat treatment (MW-VHT) onmango (Mangifera indica L.) to quarantine oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel), which is arequired process for exported fruits to developed countries. Thermal-Death-Time (TDT) and Thermal-Quality-Time (TQT) overlay plot was established and MW-VHT process was then developed based on theTDT and TQT information. Results showed that an effective quarantine temperature should be higherthan 46C with varied holding time up to 20 min at a selected temperature. Developed MW-VHTprocesses increased an internal temperature of mango fruit in a range of 48-55C, which effectivelydisinfested oriental fruit fly egg by 100%. Physio-chemical properties of MW-VHT mango, such as, color,titratable acid (TA), total soluble solid (TSS), TSS/TA, and firmness, were not significantly different(p=0.05) than those of non-treated mango. Compared to the conventional VHT, MW-VHT offered lesspercent of heat damage on mango and shortened quarantine process time more than 90% during thecome-up period.
