Resumo: The objective of this work was to determine the effects of postharvest application of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and two calcium salts, applied individually or combined, on firmness and visual quality of fresh-cut muskmelon stored in air, for 18 days. Two sets of fruits, one of them exposed to 1-MCP at 300 nL L-1, were cut into cubes, dipped in deionized water, or in 1% Ca solutions as CaCl2, or in calcium amino acid chelate (Ca-chelate), placed in clamshell containers, and stored in air at 5±1oC and 90±5% RH, for 18 days. The assay was conducted using an entirely randomized design, with three replications, in a split plot array. Evaluation of visual appearance, color, flesh firmness, total soluble solids, titratable acidity, and pH was performed right after treatments, and every period of three days, up to eighteen days. Application of 1-MCP at 300 nL L-1, calcium chloride or Ca-chelate, or the combination 1-MCP and calcium, preserved initial freshness and reduced softening of the samples. Ca-chelate synergistically enhanced the effect of 1-MCP on firmness after nine days of storage, while calcium chloride improved firmness of the samples throughout storage. Ca-chelate may serve as an alternative for shelf life extension of cantaloupe fresh-cut muskmelon.

Dois grupos de frutos, um deles exposto ao 1-MCP (300 nL L-1), foram cortados em cubos e imersos em água destilada ou em soluções com 1% de Ca, na forma de cloreto de cálcio ou de quelato amino-cálcico (Ca-quelado), colocados em embalagens de plástico e armazenados em atmosfera ambiente (5±1oC e 90±5% RH), por 18 dias. Avaliaram-se, imediatamente após a aplicação dos tratamentos e a cada três dias, até o décimo oitavo dia de armazenamento: aparência visual, coloração, firmeza da polpa, sólidos solúveis, acidez titulável e pH. As aplicações individuais ou combinadas de 300 nL L-1 1-MCP, cloreto de cálcio ou de Ca-quelado preservaram a qualidade visual inicial e reduziram o amaciamento das amostras. A aplicação de Ca-quelado aumentou o efeito do 1-MCP sobre a firmeza, após nove dias de armazenamento, enquanto a imersão em cloreto de cálcio aumentou a firmeza das amostras, durante todo o período de armazenamento. O Ca-quelado pode ser utilizado como alternativa para a manutenção da firmeza do melão cantaloupe minimamente processado.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraCAPESMachado, Francisca Ligia de CastroAlves, Ricardo ElesbãoFigueiredo, Raimundo Wilane2008-10-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/349Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.43, n.5, maio 2008; 569-574Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.43, n.5, maio 2008; 569-5741678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/349/5423info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2014-06-09T17:09:43Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/349Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2014-06-09T17:09:43Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
