Abstract
To investigate the effects of a slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) treatment on the quality of fresh-cut apples during storage, this research used a Box-Behnken design to determine the optimal SAEW treatment conditions. Then, the fresh-cut apple was treated under the optimal condition and subjected to a 13-d storage experiment at 4 °C. For fresh-cut apple treated under the optimal SAEW treatment conditions, the total number of surface colonies was reduced by 2.82 logarithms compared to the control group and the sensory score was 8.73. For the treated fresh-cut apple during storage, the quality of the treated group was significantly greater than the non-treatment group. Thus, the SAEW treatment not only effectively controlled the number of microbes on fresh-cut apple, but also slowed quality deterioration during storage.
期刊介绍：
Foods (ISSN 2304-8158) is an international, peer-reviewed scientific open access journal which provides an advanced forum for studies related to all aspects of food research. It publishes reviews, regular research papers and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists, researchers, and other food professionals to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible or share their knowledge with as much readers unlimitedly as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. There are, in addition, unique features of this journal:
manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed
electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material
we also accept manuscripts communicating to a broader audience with regard to research projects financed with public funds
