Locule Position and Thawing Duration Affect Postharvest Quality of Freshly Cryo-Frozen Musang King Durian Fruit

This study examined the effect of locule position and thawing duration on the physicochemical and nutritional characteristics of intact cryo-frozen Musang King durian fruit. Cryo-frozen durian that had 5 locules was thawed for 2 and 18 hr, and the fruitlets of each locule were analysed for colour (L...

description This study examined the effect of locule position and thawing duration on the physicochemical and nutritional characteristics of intact cryo-frozen Musang King durian fruit. Cryo-frozen durian that had 5 locules was thawed for 2 and 18 hr, and the fruitlets of each locule were analysed for colour (L*, a*, b*, C*, and h°), firmness, soluble solids concentration (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), pH, ascorbic acid (AA), total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid and ferric reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP). Results show that L* and a* of pulp colour, firmness, SSC, pH, TA, AA, and FRAP of cryo-frozen durian fruit were affected by a significant interaction between locule position and thawing duration. It implies the postharvest quality of intact cryo-frozen durian fruitlet distinct from each other due to their locule position and thawing duration.
