Combination of light exposure and low temperature in preserving quality and extending shelf-life of fresh-cut broccoli
Sensory quality was evaluated by a panel of seven judges, 25–49 years old, who are engaged in fresh produce research for at least one year.During evaluation, fresh-cut broccoli florets were presented on coded plastic trays under laboratory light conditions (approx. 2.4 _mol m−2 s−1) for scoring based on the methods of Olarte et al.(2009). Sensory attributes were quantified on a scale from 5 to 1 in the following way. Color was rated using 5 = dark green, uniformcolor, without defects, 3 = lighter green, a few yellowing spots, and 1 = yellowish florets.Texture was rated using 5 = very tight andfirm florets, 3 = slightly loose but acceptable, and 1 = very loose andwilted; Odor was rated using 5 = no off-odors, 3 = slight but obviousoff-odor, and 1 = strong off-odor.
