Abstract
The aim of study was to determine the individual effect of UV-C radiation and Hot Water Treatments (HWT) in preserving quality of chili packed in Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) under ambiet temperature storage. Chili was radiated by UV-C for 15 min and for 20 min, with HWT at 45 ฐC for 15 min and at 53 ฐC for 4 min, and untreated as control. After treatments, all fruits were packaged and stored at room temperature (25 ฐC) for 1 month. The results that untreated chilli could be stored for 7 days, treated chilli with UV-C 15 min and HWT at 45 ฐC for 15 min could be stored for 14 days, while chilli treated with UV-C for 20 min and HWT at 53 ฐC for 4 min could be stored for 17 days. Among all treatments, chili treated with UV-C for 20 min suppressed the disease severity dan maintained the harvested quality of chilli. This study suggests that combination UV-C irradiated with HWT under low temperature might be extended the shelf life of chilli. ฉ 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
