Abstract:
The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of two concentrations of Aloe vera gel (۷.۵ and ۱۵%) on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of lime during storage time (۲۰, ۴۰, and ۶۰ days). The study was performed as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with four replications. After dipping (۵ minutes) and drying, the fruits were packaged in low-density polyethylene containers and transferred to cold storage at ۴±۱°C and ۸۵±۲% relative humidity. The results showed a decrease in fruit sourness and aroma and an increase in fruit bitterness during storage. The highest rate of chilling injury and decay belonged to the control. Aloe vera gel ۱۵% had the lowest fruit bitterness (۳۰%), decay, and malondialdehyde compared to the control on day ۶۰ of storage. The Aloe vera gel enhanced peroxidase activity as an antioxidant enzyme and decreased defense-related enzymes such as phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity. The maximum vitamin C was related to Aloe vera gel ۱۵%. According to the results, Aloe vera gel, could not effectively control weight loss and firmness. During ۶۰ days of storage, compared to the control, Aloe vera gel ۱۵% increased Chroma index (۲.۰۷%) and vitamin C (۲۶.۳۷%), and prevented decay (۱۰۰%), chilling injury (۲۵.۷۵%), bitterness (۴۲.۸۵%), and malondialdehyde (۳۵.۸۰%) of lime fruit.
