摘要
To study the preservation effect of chitosan coating with different molecular weights on postharvest passion fruit, the "Qinmi No.9" was coated with chitosan of molecular weights of 30, 50, 100, 150 and 200 kDa (1.5%, w/v) to determine the quality of passion fruit during storage. The results showed that chitosan coating with different molecular weights was able to delay the shrinkage and yellowing, reduce the weight loss rate and inhibit the decay of passion fruit. Moreover, chitosan with a larger molecular weight was more conducive to delaying the ripening and senescence of passion fruit, as well as reducing shrinkage, and decay. At the end of storage, the weight loss of fruits coated with 200 kDa chitosan was nearly 10% less than that coated with 30 kDa chitosan, and the fruits coated with 150 and 200 kDa chitosan did not decay. The lower molecular weight (30 and 50 kDa) and higher molecular weight (150 kDa) chitosan were more effective in inhibiting weight loss, total soluble solids and soluble sugar metabolism, and maintaining titratable acid, flavonoid and total phenol contents of fruit during storage. The chitosan with 150 kDa had the best effect in maintaining the vitamin C content, which was 1.12 times higher than the control group at the end of storage. In conclusion, chitosan with different molecular weights was effective to delay senescence, slow down water loss and shrink of passion fruit and maintain the quality, chitosan with 150 kDa was more suitable to maintain the quality of postharvest passion fruit. © The Author(s) 2023.
