Physico-chemical attributes of fruit

The Quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.) is the only member of the genus Cydonia in the family Rosaceae. It is mostly used for culinary purposes and has great potential in processing industry. Quince genotype collections are maintained in quince block at ICARCITH, Srinagar. Physicochemical attributes play an important role in determining the nature and behavior of the fruit and their response to handling and processing. The present study was conducted during 2017-18, to evaluate ten genotypes of quince for physicochemical attributes both quantitatively and qualitatively.

For fulfilling present national and international barriers regarding the use of chemical food additives in food processing and preservation, exploration for biological and plant derived food additives have also remarkably increased. So present study was imagined with the purposes to check the shelf life of goat meat patties incorporating with Amla fruits extract and Amla seed coat extract as natural preservatives and to assess their effect on physicochemical and sensory attributes of the product under vacuum packaged refrigerated (4±1oC) storage.

Increasing irrigation intervals decreased the skin strength and calcium content of the fruit but increased the reducing sugars and ion leakage from skin disks. The data suggest that both pulp and skin characteristics of litchi fruit may determine fruit cracking susceptibility and that increasing the irrigation intervals promotes the incidence of cracking.
