The effects of postharvest infiltration of calcium on respiration, ethylene production, volatile substances and quality of 'Kuerle sweetpear' fruit.

Pyrus bretschneideri cv. Xiang-li fruits were vacuum infiltrated with 0, 4, 8 or 16% CaCl2 solution then stored at 0-1 deg C for 80 days, followed by 18-20 deg for 6 days. Calcium inhibited respiration, reduced ethylene, alcohol, ethyl acetate, acetaldehyde and acetone production, increased firmness and reduced ascorbic acid loss. The relative conductivity of the pulp and membrane permeability decreased as Ca content decreased. Ca treatment also reduced skin blemishes towards the end of storage.
