Abstract

Musa (AAA Group) cv. Kluai Hom Thong is popular and widely consumed fruits in Thailand and overseas. This experiment showed an influence of spermidine (SPD) on change of peel color and browning in banana. Ripe bananas were soaked with 0, 0.2, 0.5 and 2.0 mM and then stored at 10 oC, 85±5 %RH. Bananas, treated with 0.5 and 2.0 mM SPD, showed alteration of biochemical changes such as color, ripping and enzymatic browning reaction. Biochemical changes included chlorophyll, carotenoid, phenolic compounds, as well as polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase activities which increased during storage. Bananas, treated with SPD at 0.5 and 2.0 mM, exhibited a reduction in an accumulation of phenolic compounds, polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase activities, comparing with the non-treated SPD samples.
