“…Controlled atmospheres (CA) and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) are very effective in maintaining the quality and extending the marketability of fresh produce. Many studies have also shown that CA or MAP technologies offer the possibility to retard the respiration rate, maintain bioactive compounds and extend the shelf-life of fruits and vegetables as compared with conventionally stored or packaged samples (De Jesus Raposo et al 2009;Hanekom et al 2010;Koyuncu et al 2010;Gajewski et al 2011;Li et al 2011c;Sabir and Agar 2011). CA storage is not only an effective means of extending post-harvest shelf-life of broccoli, but also maintaining the glucosinolate content (Jones et al 2006).…”

Li, H., Tsao, R. and Deng, Z. 2012. Factors affecting the antioxidant potential and health benefits of plant foods. Can. J. Plant Sci. 92: 1101–1111. Phytochemicals, such as carotenoids, phenolics and glucosinolates, in plants and plant-based foods are able to reduce the incidence of non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, stroke and different types of cancer due to their antioxidant potential. A brief summary of the in vitro and in vivo evidence and how post-harvest storage and processing conditions can affect the health benefits is presented in this review. Genetic, environmental conditions and physiological factors may modify the composition and amounts of these compounds present in plants, thus affecting the in vitro antioxidant activities. Such changes in combination with degradations after digestion can significantly affect the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of phytochemicals. The main objective of this review is to provide updated information on the effects of various factors such as genetics, environment, post-harvest storage and processing on the bioactive components, and knowledge of these factors can lead to multidisciplinary strategies to maximise the bioavailability and health potential of foods.

“…However, internal color expressed as C* increased from day 14 until day 28, while h° did not change. Koyuncu et al (2010) reported fluctuation in L * and a * suggesting that color could be cultivar depended. Changes in apricot fruit L *, a * and b * depend also on maturity and storage temperature (Fan et al, 2018).…”

Global production of apricots (Prunus armeniaca L.) exceeds 4 million tons annually. However, production of apricots is both, production region and production season limited. Season of apricot harvesting is characterized with span of less than 2 months. Production of apricots is concentrated mainly in southern Europe with Turkey being the main producer (Muftuoğlu et al., 2012) and Spain the main exporter (García-Gómez et al., 2020) of this fruit. Spatial limitation of apricot production is a consequence of severe reduction of apricot yields in regions characterized with high probability of low temperatures, frost and snow in early spring during apricot flowering (Milić & Vukoje, 2008) resulting in yield coefficient of variation of almost 50% with occasional incidence of 100% loss of yields (Milatović et al., 2013) due to damage of flower buds by low temperatures (Glišić et al., 2019).Apricot as typical climacteric fruit is characterized with rapid degradation of fruit quality after the harvest. Shelf life of fully ripe apricot without cooling or other postharvest treatment is limited to just a few days, limiting thus the distribution of fresh ripe fruits to local markets. However, the processes of apricot degradation can be effectively retarded by cooling of fruits to close to zero temperatures. In addition to cooling, suppression of fruit respiration through the application of increased CO 2 concentration has also been proven as convenient technique for extension of apricot shelf life

ncreases in production and export values of table apricot, brings out the necessity of determination of the cultivars post-harvest resistance. This study carried out to determine quality change in table cultivars such as Ninfa, Precoce de Tyrinthe, Iğdır and Şekerpare during cold storage period. Fruits were kept at 0°C and 90-95% relative humidity for 35 days. Fruits removed from storage room at a week interval were studied for some quality parameters, physiological and pathological disorders. Weight loss of fruits increased with increasing storage period in all investigated cultivars. Modified atmosphere packaging had a positive impact on limiting of this loss. Fruit flesh firmness decreased depending on the storage period, and these values ranged from 17.9% to 10.0%. As the storage period was proceeded total soluble solid of Precoce de Tyrinthe and Şekerpare increased, in contrast, a decrease in Iğdır and Ninfa cultivars was found. Titratable acidity ratio of investigated cultivars showed a steady decrease. During storage, the ground color values (a* and b*) increased or decreased according to cultivars. In this study it was determined that the lowest weight loss (0.97%), and the highest fruit firmness (54.32 N) were measured in Iğdır apricot cultivar at the end of 35-day storage. Furthermore, in general, this process was found to be similar to quality changes of Ninfa and Precoce de Tyrinthe apricot cultivars.
