The effect of chitosan coating on physiochemical characteristics of 'pearl' guava fruit was investigated. The fruit were treated with 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0% chitosan coatings, respectively, and then stored at 11 C and 90-95% RH. Treatment with 2.0% chitosan significantly reduced firmness and weight loss, delayed changes in chlorophyll and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents and soluble solids content (SSC), and retarded the loss of titratable acidity (TA) and vitamin C during 12 days of storage. This treatment could induce a significant increase in the activities of peroxidase (POD), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), and inhibited superoxide free radical (O-2(center dot-)) production. It was suggested that effects of chitosan on increase of antioxidant ability might be beneficial in delaying ripening process in guava fruit during cold storage. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.
