Behavior of noni (Morinda citrifolia l.)at different temperatures of postharvest storage

Noni is a tropical climacteric fruit with very limi­ted postharvest life. The objective of this research was to evaluate the behavior of the noni fruit, stored at 0, 5, 15 and 28 + 2 ° C (control). For the experiment we used pest and desease free fruit, with no physical defects, degree of maturity (...

Morinda poscose­cha organolépticas refrigeración Noni is a tropical climacteric fruit with very limi­ted postharvest life. The objective of this research was to evaluate the behavior of the noni fruit, stored at 0, 5, 15 and 28 + 2 ° C (control). For the experiment we used pest and desease free fruit, with no physical defects, degree of maturity (GM2) (fruit with 50% green area), mean weight of 122 g, pH 4.82 and 7.0 ° Brix. The results indicated that the fruit stored at 0 to 5 ° C were severely damaged by cold. At 15 ° C, postharvest life was increased to 12 days, and the fruits showed the following changes: 13.40 % weight loss, pH 5.19, ° Brix 10.0 and GM3 (fruits with more than 50% of the bead area colored). Compared to fruit stored at room temperature (28 + 2 ° C), the third day after the experiment, the fruits showed the fo­llowing characteristics: 2.73 % weight loss, pH 8.13, °Brix 10 and GM4 (fully mature fruits were dark brown). We conclude that by storing the fruit at a moderate temperature (15 ° C), it is kept up to 12 days in good physicochemical conditions, increa­sing its postharvest life, to offer fresh fruit in good organoleptic condition for demanding and distant markets, reducing commercialization loss. El noni es un fruto tropical climatérico con vida poscosecha muy reducida. El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar el comportamiento de los frutos de noni, almacenados a 0, 5, 15 y 28 + 2 °C (testigo). Para el experimento se utilizaron frutos libres de plagas y enfermedades, sin defectos físicos, grado de madurez 2 (GM2) (frutos con el 50 % del área de color verde), peso promedio de 122 g, pH de 4.82 y °Brix 7.0. Los resultados indicaron que los frutos almacenados a 0 y 5 °C sufrieron daños severos por frío. Mientras que a 15 °C, se incrementó la vida poscosecha hasta 12 días; y los frutos presentaron los siguientes cambios: 13.40 % de pérdida de peso, pH 5.19, °Brix 10.0 y GM3 (frutos con más del 50 % del área de color perla). En comparación con los frutos almacenados a temperatura ambiente (28 + 2 °C), al tercer día después el experimento, los frutos presentaron las siguientes características: 2.73 % de pérdida de peso (0.23), pH 8.13, °Brix 10 y GM4 (frutos totalmente maduros color pardo oscuro). Se concluye que al almacenar los frutos a una temperatura moderada (15 °C), se mantienen hasta 12 días en buenas condiciones fisicoquímicas, incrementándose la vida poscosecha, para ofrecer frutos frescos en buenas condiciones organolépticas para mercados exigentes y distantes, reduciendo las pérdidas de comercialización.
