Analysis of residual ACC oxidase in papaya sections subjected to heat treatments.

ACC oxidase (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase) activity is used as a bioindicator of heat damage due to quarantine heat treatments. The effect of heat treatment (23 deg to 42 deg C) on ACC oxidase in pawpaw fruits immersed in hot water baths is analysed as a set of consecutive reactions, one for production and one for inactivation. It is hypothesized that ACC oxidase activity is being generated during heating.
