1 Treatments to Maintain Fresh-cut Produce Quality & Safety Jim Gorny, Ph.D. Executive Director
2 Modes of Failure for Fresh-cut Produce Cut Edge Discoloration Tissue Softening General Tissue Senescence & Breakdown Microbial Decay (yeasts, molds, bacteria) Off Flavor and Aroma Development NOTE: Most fresh-cut products in the marketplace do NOT use chemical treatments to extend shelf-life.
3 Fruit and Vegetable Color Compounds Water Soluble Green (chlorophyll) Red to purple (anthocyanins) Brown, grey, black (phenolics) pink Fat Soluble Yellow, orange, red (carotenoids) e.g. lycopene, beta-carotene
4 Cut-Edge Discoloration Key Browning Reactions PHE PAL (Phenyalanine) Phenolics PPO ph 6-7 Oxygen Copper Quinones Condensation Rx s Colored Pigments Type 1 Fresh-cut Browning PPO present, low pre-formed phenolic content (e.g.lettuce) Type 2 Fresh-cut Browning Plenty of PPO and pre-formed phenolics present (e.g. apples)
5 Phenylalanine Ammonia Lyase (PAL) Key enzyme in phenolic biosynthesis. Mechanical injury (wounding) and ethylene can stimulate phenolic metabolism Phenolics are substrates for PPO; increased concentration stimulates browning. PHE PAL (Phenyalanine) Phenolics
6 PolyPhenol Oxidase (PPO) Two types - catalyze oxidation of mono-phenolics: o-diphenoloxidases di-phenolics:laccases Requires oxygen for reaction Optimal active ph range 6-7 Requires copper in prosthetic group PPO in plastids / Phenolic substrate in vacuole Genes have been cloned Phenolics PPO ph 6-7 Oxygen Copper Quinones Condensation Rx s Colored Pigments
7 OH o-dpo OH OH o-dpo O O R monophenol + 1/2 O 2 R o-diphenol + 1/2 O 2 R o-quinone OH O amino groups R OH p-diphenol Laccase complex + 1/2 O brown 2 R polymers O p-quinone
8 Cut-Edge Discoloration Strategies to Reduce Discoloration Phenolics PPO ph 6-7 Quinones Condensation Rx s Colored Pigments Reducing Agents (ascorbic acid) Low ph (organic acids) Chelators of enzyme co-factors (citric acid) Enzyme Inhibitors (sulfites)
9 Cut-Edge Discoloration Strategies to Reduce Discoloration: Reducing Agents Phenolics PPO ph 6-7 Quinones Condensation Rx s Colored Pigments Ascorbic Acid / Erythorbic Acid CH 2 OH HCOH O HO OH O CH 2 OH HOCH HO O OH O Considerations ph Concentration Ascorbate is consumed Cost Application means Safe sanitary use when recycled

13 Cut-Edge Discoloration Strategies to Reduce Discoloration: Enzyme Inhibitors Sulfites inhibit PPO, but banned on use in fresh fruits and vegetables. Still allowed on fresh-cut potatoes in USA. >10ppm must be labeled. Other PPO inhibitors 4-hexyl resorcinol. FDA GRAS status only for shrimp. Na 2 SO 3 NaHSO 3 SO 2
14 Cut-Edge Discoloration Strategies to Reduce Discoloration: MAP 1. Low Oxygen Atmospheres (<0.25%) Requires almost complete exclusion of oxygen to inhibit PPO activity 2. High Oxygen Atmospheres (>21%) 3. Edible Coatings 4. Carbon Monoxide MAP Inhibits PPO by binding to copper in prosthetic group. Approved in USA but not used due to worker safety issues.

23 Calcium Chloride Effects on Melon Firmness (Cantwell, 2001)

26 Tissue Senescence & Breakdown Senescence = programmed aging and cell death Plant Hormone Ethylene Accelerates Ripening and Senescence Wounding Plant Tissue Produces Ethylene Inhibiting Ethylene Production & Action may Extend Shelf-life
27 Tissue Senescence & Breakdown Strategies to Reduce Tissue Senescence & Breakdown: 1-MCP What is MCP? & Why should I care? MCP = 1- Methylcyclpropene Disrupts Ethylene Induced Ripening Applied at PPB or PPM Levels as a Gas or Liquid Approved on numerous crops Ethylene C C 1-MCP H C C CH H 3 H H
28 1-MCP and Ethylene are Present Cell Membrane 1-MCP Ethylene Ethylene receptor Signal (ON) Plant Cell Signal (ON 1-MCP prevents Ethylene binding) Temporarily Blocks Synthesis of Proteins and Enzymes related to senescence Senescence delayed: Extension of leaf life including photosynthetic activity

31 Microbial Decay Is microbial growth a primary cause of fresh-cut produce spoilage or a symptom of senescence? Pseudomonads fresh-cut vegetables Yeasts and Molds fresh-cut fruit Do lower microbial counts = longer fresh-cut shelf-life?

43 Flavor and Aroma Retention Off Flavors Ethanol, Acetaldehyde Sulfur Containing Compounds Generally Caused by anaerobic metabolism Spoilage organisms (lactic acid bacteria, yeasts) Flavor & Aroma Retention An enigma, wrapped in a riddle shrouded, by mystery. Complex interactions.
44 Summary Temperature control is the most important means of extending fresh-cut produce shelf-life!!!!!!!! Numerous hurdle supplemental technologies may be used to extend fresh-cut produce shelf-life. Apply new technologies to address specific modes of failure, for specific products. Be aware of possible treatment unintended consequences.
