Biochemical changes and color properties of fresh-cut green bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv.gina) treated with calcium chloride during storage

Abstract: Calcium chloride is widely used in industries as a firming agent, and also to extend shelf-life of vegetables. The aim of this study was to determine, the effect of different doses of calcium chloride on biochemical and color properties of fresh-cut green bean. Fresh-cut green beans were dipped for 90 seconds in 0.5%, 1%, 2% and 3% solution of calcium chloride at 25°C. The fresh-cut green bean samples were packaged in polystyrene foam dishes, wrapped with stretch film and stored in a cold room at 5±1°C tempera… Show more

“…In previous studies, different kinds of methods have been developed in order to retain the freshness of fresh-cut lettuce or other vegetable (Del Nobile et al, 2008;Kasim & Kasim, 2015;Martín-Diana et al, 2008;Zhang et al, 2006). Plant hormone is a kind of naturally produced small molecular residues, which has been proven to be closely associated with plant development and stress resistance (Wang et al, 2014).…”

“…French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is an important leguminous crop mostly grown as green vegetable in Kenya mainly for export markets. It is a nutritious vegetable high in vitamin C, and dietary fibers, carbohydrates, proteins and minerals [1]. The immature pods, tender parts and also dry beans are used as curry and are served fresh in salads but in most cases prepared as cooked vegetables [1].…”

“…It is a nutritious vegetable high in vitamin C, and dietary fibers, carbohydrates, proteins and minerals [1]. The immature pods, tender parts and also dry beans are used as curry and are served fresh in salads but in most cases prepared as cooked vegetables [1]. Green beans are generally harvested at physiologically immature stage when their growth and respiration is rapid even when the temperatures are low [2].…”

“…It is a source of vitamin B, macro-and micronutrients (Al-Sanabani et al, 2016). Green beans are climacteric type of respiration pattern, therefore, changes in the texture, flavor and appearance are limiting factors of the quality of minimally processed products (Kasim and Kasim, 2015).…”

“…Therefore, the quality of fresh-cut green bean decreases rapidly. In order to prevent the loss of quality of fresh-cut vegetables, several treatment methods are being practiced .In order to slow down the changes that occur after harvesting, studies on the use of edible coating in order to prolong shelf life of fruits and vegetables (Kasim and Kasim, 2015).…”
