Abstract:
The quality of fresh-cut fruits and vegetables decreased rapidly, the mechanical injury will cause tissue enzymatic browing, bring some changes in sensory organs, shelf life.These enzymes mainly included polyphenol oxidase ( PPO ) , peroxidase ( POD ) and phenylalnine ammonialyase ( PAL ) , lipoxygenase ( LOX) , ascorbate peroxidase ( APX) , superoxide dismutase ( SOD) and catalase ( CAT) . In this paper, the research progress of the change of the key enzymes activities for enzymatic browning and role in tissue browning of fresh- cut fruits and vegetables and regulation by postharvest technology.
