USING EDIBLE COATINGS ON FRESH-CUT FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

Abstract

Fresh-cut products are susceptible to several factors between harvest and consumption period due to damaged cells and tissues. Problems such as color changing, texture loss, shrinkage, vitamin loss and microbial growth etc. may occur in these products. Because of these problems, in recent years use of edible coatings have been considered as one of the potential methods for extending shelf life of these products. Edible coatings may contribute to extend the shelf life and improve quality of fresh-cut fruits and vegetables by decreasing moisture and solute migration, gas exchange, respiration and oxidative reactions rate. The aim of this article is to research and review the using edible coatings on fresh-cut products. In this sense, importance and production of fresh-cut fruits and vegetables, compounds, application methods and advantages/disadvantages of edible coatings were evaluated.

YENİLEBİLİR KAPLAMALARIN TAZE KESİLMİŞ MEYVE VE SEBZELERDE KULLANIMI

Abstract

Taze kesilmiş ürünler, hücrelerin ve dokuların zarar görmesinden dolayı hasat ve tüketim süreci arasında birçok faktöre karşı duyarlıdır. Bu ürünlerde renk değişimi, tekstür bozulması, vitamin kaybı ve mikrobiyal gelişim gibi sorunlar ortaya çıkabilir. Bu problemler nedeniyle, son yıllarda yenilebilir kaplamalar taze kesilmiş ürünlerin raf ömrünün artırılmasında potansiyel yöntemlerden biri olarak kabul edilmiştir. Yenilebilir kaplamalar; nem ve çözünmüş maddelerin geçişini, gaz alış-verişini, solunum ve oksidatif reaksiyon hızını azaltarak taze kesilmiş meyve ve sebzelerin raf ömrünün ve kalitesinin iyileştirilmesine katkıda bulunabilir. Bu makalenin amacı, taze kesilmiş ürünlerde yenilebilir kaplamaların kullanımını araştırmak ve derlemektir. Bu kapsamda; taze kesilmiş meyve ve sebzelerin önemi, üretimi, yenilebilir kaplamaların bileşimleri, uygulama yöntemleri ve avantaj/dezavantajları değerlendirilmiştir.
