Abstract

The strawberry was dipped into $1\%\;CaCl_2$ solution at $20^{\circ}C\;and\;45^{\circ}C$ for 15min. respectively, and then packaged with or without PE film (thickness: 0.011mm) before putting into the cold storage at $5^{\circ}C$. The results showed the lowest rate of rot incidence and the highest firmness with higher Vitamin C content and the best superficial appearance in the treatment of $CaCl_2$ dipping at $45^{\circ}C$ with packaging. It also showed lower pH and higher titratable acidity in the treatment However, no significant difference of SSC was found among various treatments. The results suggested that the combination of postharvest calcium dipping and packaging could result in more effective preservation for strawberry compared with the individual treatment.

딸기를 $20^{\circ}C$$45^{\circ}C$$1\%\;CaCl_2$ 용액에 각각 15분간 침지시킨 후, PE film (0.011mm)으로 포장한 군과 포장하지 않은 군으로 나누어 $5^{\circ}C$에 저장하였다. 그리고 $CaCl_2$, 용액에 침지시키지 않고 PE film(0.011mm)으로 포장한 군과 포장하지 않은 군으로 나누어 $5^{\circ}C$에 저장하였다. $45^{\circ}C\;CaCl_2$ 용액에 침지시킨 후 포장한 처리구에서 부패율은 낮고 경도가 높게 나타났다. 또한 비타민 C함량이 높았고 외관이 가장 좋은 것으로 나타났으며 다른 처리군에 비해 pH가 낮고 산도가 높게 나타났다. 그러나 당도는 처리군 간에 유의성이 없었다. 따라서 수확 후 칼슘 처리와 포장의 병행은 딸기의 저장에 효과적인 것으로 사료된다.
