The effects of vapour phase hydrogen peroxide applications on postharvest decay of grape cv. Muskule.

ABSTRACT

Different hydrogen peroxide vapour applications were tested to decrease spoilage after harvest and especially during storage, and to present a high quality product to the market for a longer time. Liquid hydrogen peroxide at 30-35% concn was applied for 5, 10, 15 and 20 min after vaporising at 30, 40 and 60 deg C. The grapes were stored for 3 months in cold rooms at 0 plus or minus 1 deg C, immediately after harvest. At the end of the 3-month storage period, 10- and 20-min applications of 40 deg , and 5- and 10-min applications of 60 deg vaporized hydrogen peroxide gave better disease control than other applications. In addition, when taste and appearance were considered, a 20-min application of 40 deg vaporized hydrogen peroxide gave better results than other applications in grapes stored for 3 months.
