Bananas are usually harvested in the green-ripe stage and once ripening begins, it is irreversible and involves various chemical changes, with consequent modification of its texture (Quevedo et al., 2008). During ripening, banana peel color changes from green to yellow, with brown spots appearing on the yellow color at the end of ripening. This change in peel color occurs due to the synthesis of a few pigments (Mendoza and Aguilera, 2004). Chlorophyll, responsible for the green color of the peel, degrades during ripening. This degradation leads to the perception of the yellow color characteristic of the carotenoid that is already present in the fruit (Embrapa, 2012).
