Food Science and Biotechnology in Developing Countries<br />

Conclusions<br />

Figure 1. Some treatments applied to hawthorn, at 24 h to air exposition.<br />

Salt, Salt-sugar-ascorbic, Salt-sugar-citric, Salt-ascorbic, Salt-citric, Salt-sugar-citric 0.5%-ascorbic<br />

0.5% and Salt-sugar-citric 1%-ascorbic 1% treatments presented good results to avoid the color<br />

change ought to the exposition to oxygen and mechanical damage, enzymatic browning.<br />

The combination of these antioxidants with salt had good effect in the inhibition of the enzymatic<br />

browning; combination of sugar with ascorbic and citric acids dif not inhibited the reaction. The acids<br />

alone did not inhibit this reaction.<br />

The enzymes tested are not the only involved in the enzymatic browning of hawthorn. It is necessary<br />

to test the polyphenol oxidase too.<br />

The variety of hawthorn have effect, is more inhibited the creole than the grafted, may be ought to the<br />

porosity and the chemical composition.<br />
