The effect of electrolyzed water on fresh-cut eggplant in storage period
LWT-FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY(2020)
Abstract
In this study, changes in the number and species of microorganisms and levels of anthocyanins, total phenolics, and antioxidants in eggplants treated with acid electrolyzed water (AEW), slightly acid electrolyzed water (SAEW), and sterile distilled water (DW) were examined. In eggplants treated with DW, an increase of 1.22 and 1.76 log CFU/g, and 1.51 and 1.92 log CFU/g was observed in the counts of total aerobic bacteria, and yeast and mold than those treated with SAEW and AEW, respectively. the anthocyanin content in samples treated with AEW and SAEW was higher than that detected in samples treated with DW. The abilities of the eggplants treated with AEW and SAEW to scavenge DPPH were higher than those of eggplant samples treated with DW. On day 8 of storage, its richness in fresh-cut eggplant samples treated with SAEW and DW was higher than those treated with AEW.
