P.Royen) fruits under modified atmosphere Wallace Edelky de Souza Freitas Maria Lucilania Bezerra Almeida Patrícia Lígia Dantas de Morais Angélica Kaynne da Curnha Moura Rui Sales Júnior Agrociencias Ethylene storage time fruit quality analysis physiological maturity postharvest conservation Sapodilla ( Manilkara zapota (L.) P. Royen) is a climacteric fruit, very perishable, with high metabolic activity, rapid ripening and reduced storage time at room temperature, thus making difficult its commercialization. However, this research aimed to evaluate the effect of potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) on the quality and post-harvest conservation of sapodilla fruit under modified atmosphere at room temperature. The sapodilla fruits were harvested when they reached physiological maturity and then accommodated in Styrofoam trays with PVC film coating. Within each package, KMnO 4 were placed at different concentrations (0, 0.250, 0.375, and 0.500 g of KMnO 4 per kg of fruit, respectively), impregnated in vermiculite. In addition, were kept in storage at room temperature (25 ± 1 °C and 54 ± 5% RU) for fifteen days, with fruit quality analysis every five days. The potassium permanganate doses influenced the sapodilla fruit quality, wherein the concentration of 0.375 g of KMnO 4 per kg of fruit was the most efficient, retarding the loss of firmness and vitamin C degradation of sapodilla fruits throughout five days storage under modified atmosphere at room temperature. The sapodilla fruit postharvest life stored under modified atmosphere with potassium permanganate 25 ± 1 °C and 54 ± 5% RU, is ten days. 2017 artículo científico 0120-2812 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=169951832005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1699/169951832005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1699/169951832005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1699/169951832005/169951832005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1699/169951832005/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1699 Acta Agronómica application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Acta Agronómica (Colombia) Num.3 Vol.66
