  • Changes in the Sensory Characteristics of Mango Cultivars During the Production of Mango Purée and Sorbet
    DIFFERENCES IN SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS AMONG VARIOUS MANGO CULTIVARS IN THE FORM OF FRESH SLICED MANGO, MANGO PURÉE, AND MANGO SORBET by CHRISTIE N. LEDEKER B.S., University of Delaware, 2008 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Interdisciplinary Food Science Graduate Program Department of Human Nutrition KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2011 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Delores H. Chambers Abstract Fresh mangoes are highly perishable, and therefore, they are often processed to extend shelf-life and facilitate exportation. Studying the transformation that mango cultivars undergo throughout processing can aid in selecting appropriate varieties for products. In the 1st part of this study, the flavor and texture properties of 4 mango cultivars available in the United States (U.S.) were analyzed. Highly trained descriptive panelists in the U.S. evaluated fresh, purée, and sorbet samples prepared from each cultivar. Purées were made by pulverizing mango flesh, passing it through a china cap, and heating it to 85 °C for 15 s. For the sorbets, purées were diluted with water (1:1), sucrose was added, and the bases were frozen in a batch ice cream freezer. Much of the texture variation among cultivars was lost after fresh samples were transformed into purées, whereas much of the flavor and texture variation among cultivars was lost once fresh mangoes and mango purées were transformed into sorbets. Compared to the other cultivars, Haden and Tommy Atkins underwent greater transformations in flavor throughout sorbet preparation, and processing reduced the intensities of some unpleasant flavors in these cultivars.

Pakistani Mango is one of the most delicious products in the world, which is being exported in large quantities from Pakistan to Europe, Middle East & America by air and to the Gulf by sea in reefers containers. A research reveals the consumption of mangoes may potentially have a positive effect on blood sugar in obese individuals and reduce cancer risk.

Suleman and A.U.R. Saljoqi ABSTRACT The study was undertaken in 2004, at the Department of Agricultural Chemistry, NWFP Agricultural University, Peshawar Pakistan, to access the residues of commonly used pesticides viz Cypermethrin, Methamedophos, Monocrotophos, Cyfluthrin, Dialdrin and Methyl Parathian, respectively in three varieties of Mango being collected from the local markets in Peshawar. The samples were treated with organic solvent Cyclohexane and ethylacetate (1:1), cleaned on Gel Permeation Chromatograph (GPC) and analyzed on auto system Gas Chromatograph (GC) with electron capture detector (ECD). All the samples were found to be contaminated with a degree of variation of pesticides residue studied. However, all the samples were within permissible limits, set by FAO/WHO with reference to public health.

Among these diseases, powdery mildew caused by Oidium mangiferae is one of the most serious and widespread disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of different fungicides on Mango powdery mildew. The experiment was conducted on four different varieties, viz. Sindhri (V1), Siroli (V2), Dasehri (V3), and Chunsa (V4) grown in four different mango orchards located in Tando Allah Yar, Pakistan. A total of four fungicides, i.e., Cabriotop at Ghaffar Bachani Agriculture Farm (Farm 1), Correct at Shah Agriculture Farm (Farm 2), Nativo at Hyder Shah Fruit Farm (Farm 3) and Topas at Anwar Bachani Agriculture & Fruit Farm (Farm 4) were applied to evaluate their performance by determining disease incidence percent (DI %) and disease severity index (DSI) for susceptibility/resistance of different varieties in order to study the efficacy of different fungicides on Mango powdery mildew caused by Oidium mangiferae .

The aim of this study was to evaluate the physico chemical and sensorial characteristics of four popular mango (Mangifera indica L.) varieties (Dusahri, Chaunsa, Ratol and Langra) grown in three major areas of Pakistan; Multan (MUL), Rahim Yar Khan (RYK) and Mir Pur Khas (MPK). Langra variety exhibited higher acidity, lower pH and total soluble solids (TSS) among all the tested varieties. No significant (p<0.05) difference was observed for the site of production for these attributes. Colour characteristics of Langra variety collected from all three regions were found to be superior among the tested varieties. However, this variety was rated inferior for other sensory attributes (flavour, taste and overall acceptability). Furthermore, no correlation could be established for a particular variety to all three regions. Similarly, no parallel could be drawn between a single region and all four varieties for sensory profile except the variety Ratol which was shown to be highly acceptable for flavour, taste and overall acceptability in all three sites of its production.
