description Aiming to evaluate the effect of hot water treatment_both temperature and exposure time_on banana latex removal, 2 experiments were carried out using recently-harvested banana fruit (cv. Valery, Musa AAA Subgroup Cavendish) of 12 weeks of age (flower to harvest). In the first experiment, 4 water temperatures (25, 35, 45 and 55ºC) and 4 immersion times (5, 10, 15 and 20 min) were evaluated; a commercial control (fruit from commercial packing line) was included in the experiment. In the second experiment hot water (45ºC) treatments at 2 immersion times (10 and 20 min) were compared with a commercial control and with an absolute control (clusters packaged just after separation from brunch). In both experiments hot water treatments were applied to recently separated clusters (with fresh latex exudate). Hot water treatments did not induce premature onset of ripening during the transit-simulation period (15 days). In the first experiment, treatments at 55ºC induced severe peel damage (discoloration and rotting). In general, hot water treatments did not affect firmness (p>0.2685) but affected peel color (p<0.0145) and soluble solids (p<0.0001). Treatment at 45ºC for 10 min was as effective as the commercial control (20 to 25 min in delatexing circulating-water tanks, followed by healing (alum) and fungicide sprays after removal from the tank), for latex removal; recoveries of latex during transport simulation were similar.

Valery (Musa AAA, subgrupo Cavendish). En el experimento 1 se evaluaron 4 temperaturas del agua: 25, 35, 45 y 55°C y, 4 tiempos de inmersión: 5, 10, 15 y 20 min en conjunto con un tratamiento testigo comercial. En el experimento 2 se evaluó unicamente la temperatura del agua a 45°C y 2 tiempos de inmersión: 10 y 20 min. En este experimento se incluyó un tratamiento testigo comercial (frutos tomados de la línea de empaque de la finca) y otro tratamiento testigo conformado por frutos cuyos gajos fueron empacados inmediatamente después de la separación del racimo (testigo absoluto). En ambos experimentos la inmersión de los frutos en agua caliente se realizó inmediatamente después que las manos fueron seccionadas del racimo y conformadas en gajos. En ambos experimentos no hubo maduración prematura durante el periodo de simulación de transporte que fue de 15 días. En el experimento 1 los tratamientos expuestos a 55°C, presentaron daño severo de quemadura en la cáscara. En el experimento 2 no se afectó la firmeza (p > 0,2685), aunque hubo diferencias estadísticas en el color de la cáscara (p < 0,0145) y en los sólidos solubles (p > 0,0001). El tratamiento de inmersión de 45°C por 10 min demostró que puede ser tan efectivo en la remoción del látex de la corona de gajos recién conformados de frutos de banano como el tratamiento comercial, basado en la inmersión sucesiva de los frutos en depósitos de agua circulante y la posterior aplicación de fungicidas y cicatrizantes.Universidad de Costa Rica2009-11-27info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleArtículoTextartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agrocost/article/view/668410.15517/rac.v35i1.6684Agronomía Costarricense; Agronomía Costarricense: Vol. 35, Issue 1 (January-June)Agronomía Costarricense; Agronomía Costarricense: Vol. 35, Nº 1 (Enero-Junio)2215-22020377-942410.15517/rac.v35i1reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agrocost/article/view/6684/6373Derechos de autor 2016 Agronomía Costarricensehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2025-04-08T15:47:32Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/6684Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:33:18.085Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
