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 />
