Ascorbic acid content in different cultivars of strawberries
نویسندگان
چکیده
The strawberry cultivars Arosa, Clery, Miss, Raurica, Queen Elisa, Diamante and Madeleine grown in Slovenia were harvested at the commercially maturity stage and the content of total ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) was determined. Ascorbic acid (AA) was measured by using high-performance liquid chromatography and photodiode array detector. The total AA content of cultivars ranged from 32.3 mg/100 g to 62.5 mg/100 g. No significant difference in total AA contents was observed in fresh and freeze-dried samples.

Drought is the most common environmental stress in vineyard occurs in soils with low water content, even in irrigation condition. To evaluate foliar spraying of ascorbic acid under drought stress, a research during 2012 to 2013 years in the natural environment, and one year after the establishment of the cuttings in clay loam soil was conducted. Cultivars with two-level white seedless and khosh...

متن کاملPreparation and Application of LDPE/ZnO Nanocomposites for Extending Shelf Life of Fresh Strawberries.
Strawberries have a very short post-harvest life mostly due to their relatively high water content, intense metabolic activity and susceptibility to microbial rot. Antimicrobial low-density polyethylene nanocomposite films containing ZnO nanoparticles at different mass fractions were prepared by melt mixing and followed by compression moulding using a hot press machine. Fresh strawberries were ...
