Influence of agricultural cultivation methods on the physicochemical and colour parameters of Florina apples during storage in conventional refrigerated rooms
Keywords:
apples, colour parameters, storageAbstract
The scientific experiment was conducted at the Department of Food Technology at IFPQ-Plovdiv with the aim of assessing the impact of three-month refrigerated (1-4°C) storage on the physicochemical and colour properties of biologically and conventionally cultivated Florina apples The assessment is made on the basis of dry substance content, %; antioxidant activity measured in μmolTE/100 g; total polyphenols content in mg GAE/100g and colour properties – brightness and intensity of the red/green and yellow hues – as measured by the CieLab system
