  • 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.

  • Ataulfo’ Mango Under Pruning and Paclobutrazol Management
    J. Agr. Sci. Tech. (2014) Vol. 16: 385-393 Vegetative and Reproductive Development of ‘Ataulfo’ Mango under Pruning and Paclobutrazol Management ∗ D. A. García De Niz 1, G. L. Esquivel 2 , R. B. Montoya 2, B. G. Arrieta Ramos 2, G. A. Santiago 2, J. R. Gómez Aguilar 2, and A. R. Sao José 3 ABSTRACT Pruning of the plant canopy and paclobutrazol application to the root zone are agronomic practices that improve harvest yield in mango ( Mangifera indica L.) orchards. To assess the effect of pruning and paclobutrazol treatment on the vegetative and reproductive development of ‘Ataulfo’ mango, three pruning dates (20 April, 20 May, and 20 June) and three concentrations of paclobutrazol (PBZ) (7.5, 11.25, and 15 mL of active ingredient) were used. While control trees presented only one vegetative growth during the productive cycle, trees that were pruned and treated with PBZ had up to three vegetative growth cycles before flowering, regardless of whether pruning occurred in April, May, or June. The number of vegetative shoots and inflorescences (m -2) were equal when trees were pruned and PBZ was applied. When pruning was performed in April or May, the time of harvest occurred 28 days earlier compared to the control. Pruning in April numerically resulted in the greatest production efficiency (7-11 kg m -2). For all the three pruning dates, fruit production of trees treated with PBZ and pruning was from 38 to 98 kg; these values were always less than those obtained for the control trees. The greatest incidence of seedless fruits (57-80%) occurred when pruning was performed in June.

Abstract. The near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy both on-line and off-line scanning was applied on mango fruits (Mangifera indica CV. ‘Nam dok mai- si Thong’) for the overall precision test. The reference parameter was total soluble solids content (Brix value). The results showed that the off-line scanning had a higher accuracy than on-line scanning. The scanning repeatability of the off-line and on-line systems were 0.00199 and 0.00993, respectively. The scanning reproducibility of the off-line and online systems were 0.00279 and 0.00513, respectively. The reference of measurement ͦ repeatability was 0.2. The maximum coefficient of determination (R ΛΏΦ) of the reference measurement was 0.894. 1 Introduction Mango is an important economic crop, which can generate income for farmers in Thailand because of consumption demand in both domestic and international markets. According to the statistics of mangoes exports in 2017, The total production throughout was 2.017 million tons [2]. The most exported mango species include nam dok mai, Khiao Sawiei, Hnuk Klangwan, Chok Anan, Rad and Aok Rong, respectively.

Back in the 1940s, she said, University of Miami (UM) football players would sometimes assist with heavy lifting projects around the Garden. Any time there were massive boulders or tree trunks to be moved,A Dr. David Fairchild would phone the UM football coach and make a plea for help. I have never found proof of this in our archives, but the story fits with what we know of Dr. Fairchild’s creativity and persuasiveness. It also reflects a collaborative spirit that still exists between our Garden and local universities. Today we still have massive projects we can’t do ourselves, and we receive help from UM, Florida International University (FIU) and Miami-Dade College (MDC) in unexpected ways.

Received 21 January, 2015; Accepted 21 July, 2015 The aim of this study was to evaluate the concentrations of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide donor, on postharvest ripening and quality of mango fruit cv. Nam Dok Mai No.4. The fruits were dipped in 1 or 2 mM of SNP solution for 30 min while control fruits were dipped in tap water for 30 min. After treatment, all fruits were stored for 18 days at 13°C and RH 90%. Both SNP doses showed significantly reduced ethylene production and respiration rate, maintained the fruit firmness, decreased the changes in total soluble solids and titratable acidity, and reduced fruit weight loss. The treatments of SNP also delayed color development in fruit peel and pulp. SNP-treated fruits showed higher L* and hue angle values and lower a* and b* values in comparison with control fruits. No significant differences were found between 1 and 2 mM SNP treatments. SNP applying on dose of 1mM to postharvest ‘Nam Dok Mai No.4’ mango fruits and then stored at 13°C changed ethylene production and respiration rates, maintained firmness pulp, decreased weight loss and slowed the changes in fruit peel and pulp color, total soluble solids (TSS) and titratable acidity (TA),.

  • Effect of Aloe Vera Gel on Quality and Shelf Life of Mango (Mangifera Indica L.) Fruits Cv
    Effect of Aloe Vera Gel on Quality and Shelf Life of Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Fruits cv. Nam Dok Mai and Technology Dissemination Apiradee Muangdech, Rajabhat Rajanagarindra University, Thailand The European Conference on Sustainability, Energy & the Environment 2017 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract This study was designed to assess the suitable concentration of natural coating materials, namely, Aloe vera gel to control antracnose of mango (Mangifera indica L.) fruits cv. Nam Dok Mai taken from Bangkla, Chachoengsao Province. The experiment was to evaluate the benefits of this technology. It was found that coating with 20% Aloe vera gel gave the longest shelf life with good quality at 12 days at a storage temperature of 25 °C and 75±5 % relative humidity as well as slowing down the weight loss, firmness and changed in chemical compositioned such as titratable acidity (TA) and total soluble solids (TSS) significantly compared to control and other treatment (p ≤ 0.05). The use of the Aloe vera gel coatings did not alter the quality of the fruit when ripe. Technology dissemination to mango growers of Chachoengsao Co-orperatory Community was performed by using the training created by the researcher. The results of the pre-test and after training post-test showed that farmers increased their knowledge, skills, awareness and attitudes in the use of Aloe vera gel for prolonging shelf life of mango fruits. Keywords: Aloe vera gel, shelf life, Nam Dok Mai, technology dissemination. iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org Introduction Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a tropical fruit that has economic importance in Thailand and can be grown in all regions of the country.
