Abstract

The effect of nitric oxide (NO) treatment on the quality of kiwifruit, cv. Hayward, was studied at room temperature after cold storage for one or three months at 0°C. Kiwifruits cold-stored for one month were treated with 200 μL･L^-1 NO and subsequently transferred to room temperature to monitor quality changes over the course of their shelf life. Weight loss was high in fruits not treated with NO. Ethylene production was delayed for two days by NO treatment, and respiration rate was reduced to less half than that of the control. The kiwifruits stored for three months were treated with N2 and 100, 200, or 500 μL･L^-1 NO, or air alone. The highest weight loss was observed in kiwifruit treated with 100 μL･L^-1 NO. While ethylene production was high in fruits treated with 100 μL･L-1 NO and without the treatment, it was relatively low in the kiwifruit treated with 200 and 500 µL･L^-1 NO. Firmness was abruptly decreased in fruits not treated with NO, while the kiwifruit exposed to 200 μL･L^-1 NO maintained the same level of firmness for 9 days at room temperature. In addition, growth of Botrytis cinerea was inhibited by NO as compared with the air and N2 treatments. Our findings indicate that NO can be used effectively for prolonging shelf life and maintaining fruit quality during distribution after cold storage. The optimum NO concentration for cold-stored kiwifruits was found to be 200 μL･L^-1.

본 연구는 저온 저장된 키위과실의 상온 유통 중 에틸렌 발생 및 품질에 미치는 영향을 확인함으로써 유통기간 연장에 NO 처리 효과를 확인하기 위해서 수행하였다. 1개월 저장된 키위를 200μL･L^-1 NO를 처리한 후 대조구와 함께 상온에 저장하면서 품질을 비교하였다. 상온에서 저장하는 동안 무게손실은 무처리구에 높았다. 에틸렌 생성은 NO 처리에 의해서 2일 지연되었으며, 호흡률은 대조구에 비해 2배 이상 낮았다. 3개월 저장된 키위과실은 100, 200, 그리고 500μL･L^-1 농도로 NO를 처리하였다. 대조구는 NO를 처리하지 않은 무처리구와 N2 처리구를 두었다. 무게손실은 100μL･L^-1에서 가장 많았으며, 1개월 저장된 과실에 비해서도 높은 손실률을 보였다. 에틸렌 생생은 대조구와 100μL･L^-1 NO에서 높은 반면 200μL･L^-1 NO와 500μL･L^-1 NO에서는 상대적으로 낮았다. 경도는 무처리구와 N2 처리구는 저장 일수가 경과 되면서 급격히 연화된 반면, NO 처리구에서는 6일까지 경도가 높게 유지되었으며, 특히 200μL･L^-1 NO 처리구는 9일까지 유지되었다. 키위과실로부터 채취하여 배양된 Botrytis cinerea에 NO를 처리한 결과 처리 후 2일 경과될 때까지 무처리구와 N2 처리구에 비해서 NO 처리구는 곰팡이 번식이 적었다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면 저장된 과실을 상온에 유통하기 전에 NO 처리는 에틸렌 발생 및 호흡을 저지시키고, 연화를 지연시키는데 효과가 있다. NO의 적정 처리 농도는 200μL･L^-1 NO을 기준으로 너무 낮거나 높으면 NO의 효과가 줄어든다.
