Abstract:
In order to explore the best preservation conditions of
Coriandrum sativum, the effects of wrapping film storage at −2, 0, 4 and 10 ℃ and direct storage at 0 ℃ on color difference, chlorophyll contents, weightlessness rate, film permeability and sensory evaluation were studied. The results showed that, stored at 0 ℃ after 7 d, the weightlessness rate of
Coriandrum sativum packed with plastic film was 24%, while that of
Coriandrum sativum directly refrigerated was 35%. The plastic film could inhibit the water evaporation and reduce the weightlessness rate of
Coriandrum sativum. With the increasing of storage temperature, the weightlessness rate, color difference and membrane permeability of
Coriandrum sativum increased, and the chlorophyll contents of
Coriandrum sativum decreased more obviously. Based on the analysis of the above indexes, it would be suitable to wrap coriander with plastic film at 0 ℃.
