Abstract
Kiwifruit (Actindia deliciosa cv. Hayward) is commonly cultivated in the north part of Iran. In this research, fruits at commercial maturity stage were immersed in 1mM salicylic acid (SA) solution for 3.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 min, stored at 0.5 o C up to 90 days. Physicochemical properties of fruits including weight losses, skin and flesh color, firmness, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), pH and sensory properties were monitored during storage. The results showed that fruit weight loss significantly decreased in all dipping time in comparison to control. Dipped fruits in SA solution for 5, 7.5 and 10 minutes had higher firmness and lower TSS than 3.5 min dipping time and control. Furthermore, no significant changes were observed in TA and pH during storage in all treatments. A high levels of skin and flesh L* values were observed in fruits which maintained for one month than those stored for two and three months. Besides, a* and b* values of flesh and skin at each sampling date had not significant differences with control. Generally, flesh L* value decreased during storage at 90 days. Flesh a* value was more negative in the first month that referred to enhancement of flesh green color in all treatments. SA application was not influenced on b* value in comparison to control. The content of vitamin C was not changed in response to different dipping time of SA solutions. In the sensory test, fruits which dipped in SA solution for 5 and 7.5 min appeared an Overall Liking appearance as commented by assessors.
