Stability of mango cubes preserved by hurdle technology

Abstract: Fruit preservation by hurdle technology is based on combinations of low levels of various antimicrobial factors (hurdles) acting synergistically resulting in a shelf stable high moisture, fresh-like product. The objective of this work was to evaluate the stability of mango cubes obtained by combining the following hurdles: water activity reduction, pH reduction, and chemical preservation. Tommy Atkins mangoes, previously washed, sanitized and peeled, were cut into cubes of approximately 8 cm 3 . The cubes were… Show more

“…The highest reduction was observed in mango, while the lowest in banana and apple fruits. The values of a w examined in our study were pretty in line with those reported by [44] and [45] who observed a w in the range of 0.970 -0.996 in fruits, vegetables and meat. The decrease in water activity of fruits with storage time was attributed to the loss of water by natural drying process.…”
