Oz, Ayse Tuelin published the artcileVolatile compositions of strawberry fruit during shelf life using pre and postharvest hexanal treatment, Synthetic Route of 140-11-4, the main research area is strawberry shelf life preharvest postharvest hexanal treatment volatile composition.
Changes in volatile compositions were determined in Rubygem strawberry variety related to pre and postharvest hexanal application during shelf life. For this concern, Rubygem variety was treated with hexanal vapor and spray applications which were, doses (0%, 0.01%, 0.02%) pre and postharvest after hexanal applications strawberry fruits were stored at 2°C and RH 90% conditions. Effects of hexanal spray and vapor applications of strawberry fruit volatile profiles were analyzed with HS-SPME/GC-MS techniques. Differences among treatments were identified in volatile compositions at 3 days intervals during 15 days of shelf life. The results showed that, hexanal application type and concentration effected the percentage of volatile composition of esters, ketones, terpens, alcs., acids, aldehydes, and others during shelf life. The hexanal application form and concentration were effected the amount and composition of volatiles of Rubygem strawberry fruit. As a result, hexanal spray application has important effects on ester percentage, however, hexanal vapor treatment increased the alcs. percentage of strawberries at the end of shelf life. Practical applications : Application of organic substances of hexanal pre and postharvest season has been successfully used due to their environmentally friendly effects. Hexanal is volatile gases, organic aldehydes which are the source of plant extract and used as food additives. There are many research on hexanal application to prevent microbial growth after harvest. In the present study, hexanal spray and vapor applications were used to determined the volatiles profile strawberries fruit during shelf life.
