Inhibition of pear fruit ripening by mannose.
Softening of the flesh and the rise in ethylene evolution and respiration associated with ripening in pear (Pyrus communis L.) fruit was delayed when mannose was vacuum infiltrated into intact fruit. The extent of delay could be modified by altering the concentration or the volume of mannose applied to the fruit. Inhibition of ripening was associated with phosphorylation of mannose to mannose 6...
متن کاملCactus Pear: A Fruit of Nutraceutical and Functional Importance
The constantly increasing demand for nutraceuticals is paralleled by a more pronounced request for natural ingredients and health-promoting foods. The multiple functional properties of cactus pear fit well this trend. Recent data revealed the high content of some chemical constituents, which can give added value to this fruit on a nutritional and technological functionality basis. High levels o...
متن کاملHeat treatment and fruit ripening
Postharvest heat treatments lead to an alteration of gene expression and fruit ripening can sometimes be either delayed or disrupted. The extent of the alternation of fruit ripening is a function of the exposure temperature and duration and how quickly the commodity is cooled following the heat treatment. The most commonly measured components of fruit ripening affected by heat treatments includ...
متن کاملPolyribosomes from Pear Fruit: Changes during Ripening and Senescence.
Polysome profiles were examined from lyophilized peel tissue of ripening pear (Pyrus communis, L. var. Passe-Crassane). Messenger RNA chains bearing up to eight ribosomes (octamers) were resolved and exhibited the highest absorption peak when ribonuclease activity was eliminated during extraction. Neither normal ripening nor the increase of large polyribosomes that normally accompanies ripening...
متن کاملCactus-Pear Juices
This paper presents a review of cactus-pear juice production. Its technological characteristics are considered, as well as the main difficulties in obtaining high-quality juice. Acidity, pigments, aroma, and other components play an important role in the cactus pear juice processing. Betalain and chlorophyll are present in purple and green cactus pear juices, and heat treatment of the juices af...
