The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of vacuum cooling and temperature on the quality and storage life of mung bean sprouts (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek). Sprouts in micro-perforated bags were either not precooled or vacuum cooled to 9, 6, or 3 °C, and stored for 7 days at 1, 3, or 6 °C. Vacuum-cooled bean sprouts lost more weight than sprouts not precooled, and the weight loss was greater when the sprouts were cooled to lower temperatures. However, the total loss never exceeded 5% and no apparent signs of shrivel were observed. Vacuum cooling resulted in greater product freshness after 4 days of storage, but the effect was nonsignificant after 7 days. Storage temperature had greater influence on bean sprout quality than did cooling temperature, with greater freshness and whiter hypocotyls at the lower temperatures. However, blackening of cotyledons increased as the storage temperature decreased.

Green bean sprouts are a type of vegetable that has a short shelf life. To extend the shelf life of these vegetables, they need to be stored by appropriate packaging methods. The aim of this study was to apply polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) plastic packaging to increase the shelf life of mung bean sprouts. The research was conducted by packing mung bean sprouts in PE and PP plastic at storage temperatures of 10 and 29 °C for 9 days. The parameters observed were weight loss, respiration rate, color, moisture content, and aroma. The results showed that mung bean sprouts stored in PE packaging had a longer shelf life than PP packaging. The shelf life of mung bean sprouts using PE packaging is 5 days, while PP packaging can only last 3 days at 10 °C. The shelf life of mung bean sprouts using PE packaging is 4 days, while the PP packaging can only last 2 days at 29 °C. Keywords: green bean sprouts, packaging, PE plastic, storage, temperature

Native biofilms present on the adaxial surface of cotyledons of mung bean sprouts (Vigna radiata) were studied by use of scanning electron microscopy. Biofilms were abundant on the cotyledon surfaces and were comprised of rod-shaped bacteria, cocci-shaped bacteria, or yeasts, often with one type of microbe predominant. In contrast to our earlier study of biofilms on green sprouts (alfalfa, clover, broccoli, and sunflower), yeast and cocci were abundant on mung bean. Filamentous fungi were not observed. Sheet-like or fibrillar material (presumably composed of secreted microbial polysaccharides, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids) fully or partially covered the biofilms. Biofilms up to 5 mm in length were observed, and some biofilms were comprised of more than just a monolayer of microbial cells. Native biofilms on sprout surfaces undoubtedly play an important role in the ecology of plant epiphytic microbes and may also afford protected sites for plant and human bacterial pathogens.Key words: mung bean sprouts, biofilms, native microflora, scanning electron microscopy, food safety.

Mung bean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) sprouts, when germinated in water with no added calcium, were prone to physiological collapse of the cell walls below the cotyledonary hook. Growth of the collapsing hypocotyls gradually decreased until it stopped completely as the collapsed area extended cross-sectionally. Scanning electron micrographs indicated that extensive microbial degradation of the collapsed area of the low-calcium hypocotyl ensued by day 4 of germination. In contrast, at the same stage of germination, bacteria were essentially absent on sprouts germinated with calcium added to the water either as CaCl2, or Ca(NO3)2. Even by day 7 the calcium-treated hypocotyls remained intact and without any visual microbial degradation although bacteria were present on the surface of the seedlings. It is concluded that mung bean sprouts are very sensitive to physiological collapse with subsequent microbial degradation of the hypocotyl especially at temperatures above 20 °C. Therefore, it is recommended that water used for germinating the sprouts has sufficient calcium added (e.g. 5 × 10−3 M CaCl2) to maintain the integrity of the hypocotyls and reduce the microbial flora on the sprouts.Key words: Hypocotyl, growth, deterioration, mineral supplement

Transport duration affects the vibration level generated which has adverse effects on fresh produce during transportation. Furthermore, temperature affects the quality of fresh commodities during storage. This study evaluated physical changes in tomatoes during transportation and storage. Tomatoes were transported at three distances (100, 154, and 205 km) from a local farm and delivered to the Postharvest Laboratory where vibration acceleration was recorded per distance. Tomato was stored at two different temperatures (10 °C and 22 °C) for 12 days. The physical qualities like weight loss and firmness of all tomato samples were evaluated. RGB image acquisition system was used to assess the color change of tomato. The results of vibration showed that over 40% of accelerations occurred in the range of 0.82–1.31 cm/s2 of all transport distances. Physical quality analyses like weight loss and firmness were highly affected by transportation distance, storage temperature, and storage period. The reduction in weight loss and firmness was the highest in tomatoes transported from the farthest distance and stored at 22 °C. Lightness, yellowness, and hue values showed a high reduction as transport distance increased particularly in tomatoes stored at 22 °C. Redness, total color difference, and color indices increased significantly on tomatoes transported from 205 km and stored at 10 °C and 22 °C. The study indicated that the increase in transportation distance and storage temperature cause higher changes in the physical qualities of tomatoes.

Salah satu cara yang dilakukan untuk mempertahankan kualitas daun seledri dan memperpanjang umur simpan adalah menggunakan pengemasan dengan ukuran ketebalan plastik polietilen densitas rendah (LDPE) yang tepat dan penyimpanan pada suhu rendah. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh ketebalan plastik polietilen densitas rendah sebagai bahan pengemas terhadap mutu daun seledri selama penyimpanan dingin dan untuk mengetahui tingkat ketebalan plastik polietilen densitas rendah berapakah yang dapat mempertahankan mutu daun seledri yang terbaik. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian eksperimental. Rancangan  percobaan  yang  digunakan  adalah  Rancangan  Acak  Lengkap  (RAL) dengan perlakuan ketebalan plastik polietilen densitas rendah dengan ukuran ketebalan 0,02 mm; 0,03 mm; 0,04 mm; 0,05 mm, 0,06 mm. Pengamatan dilakukan setiap 3 hari sekali dan setiap perlakuan diulang sebanyak 3 kali pada suhu penyimpanan 100 ± 20C selama 18 hari penelitian. Parameter dalam penelitian ini adalah susut bobot, kadar air, warna, tekstur, tingkat kesegaran, dan aroma. Hasil analisis ragam menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan ketebalan plastik LDPE sebagai bahan pengemas daun seledri berpengaruh sangat nyata (P?0,01) terhadap parameter penelitian. Perlakuan terbaik diperoleh dari ketebalan plastik polietilen densitas rendah ukuran 0,04 mm dengan susut bobot 4,64 %, warna 18,97, tekstur 0,0455 N, kadar air 90,22 %, tingkat kesegaran 4,87 dan aroma 5,00. Kesimpulan bahwa tingkat ketebalan plastik LDPE 0,04 dapat mempertahankan mutu daun seledri paling lama diantara ukuran ketebalan yang lainnya yaitu selama 18 hari.     One way to maintain the quality of celery and extend shelf life is to use packaging with the right size level of low density polyethylene (LDPE) and storage at low temperatures. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of low density polyethylene plastic as a packaging material on the quality of celery during cold storage and to determine what size level of low density polyethylene plastic can maintain the best quality celery. This research method uses experimental research. The study applied a completely Randomized Design (RAL) with one treatment factor: size level of LDPE plastic (0.02 mm, 0.03 mm, 0.04 mm, 0.05 mm, 0.06 mm). Observations were carried out once every 3 days and each treatment was repeated 3 times at a storage temperature of 100 ± 20C for 18 days of the study. The parameters in this study are weight loss, water content, color, texture, level of freshness, and aroma. The results of the analysis of variance showed that the treatment of size level of LDPE plastic as a celery packaging material had a very significant effect (P?0.01) on the research parameters. The best treatment was obtained from the size level of a low density polyethylene plastic size of 0.04 mm with a weight loss is 4.64%, a color is 18.97, a texture is 0.0455 N, a moisture content is 90.22%, a level of freshness is 4.87 and a scent is 5.00. The conclusion that size level of LDPE plastic is 0.04 mm can maintain the longest quality of celery among other size level for 18 days.
