Abstract
This study explored the impact of short-term anaerobic treatment combined with microperforated packaging (SAT-MP) on the postharvest quality and physiology of Stropharia rugosonulata mushrooms at 3 ℃. Results indicated that both SAT-MP treatments (T1, T2) and microperforated packaging alone (T3) establish a favorable environment with low O2 (8%−12%) and high CO2 (around 10%). All treatment groups showed significant improvements in firmness, color, and internal structure. Specifically, T1, T2, and T3 exhibited 38%, 41%, and 24% greater stipe firmness and 119%, 173%, and 48% lower browning index, respectively, compared to the control. These treatments also maintained high levels of antioxidant enzyme activity, including Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT), Peroxidase (POD), and Ascorbate Peroxidase (APX), as well as non-enzymatic antioxidants such as total phenols, flavonoids, and ascorbic acid. The combined treatment demonstrated the most significant effect, activating the mushroom's antioxidant system, reducing malondialdehyde (MDA) content, conductivity, and ethanol/acetaldehyde accumulation, thus mitigating lipid peroxidation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results confirmed better preservation of tissue and cell structure with the 12 h anaerobic treatment. Correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between firmness and oxidative damage indicators, as well as with the browning index and antioxidant-related indicators. Overall, short-term anaerobic treatment with microperforated packaging enhanced antioxidant capacity, maintains reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism balance, and cell membrane integrity, effectively delaying firmness decline and browning, highlighting its critical role in extending shelf life.
期刊介绍:
Food packaging is crucial for preserving food integrity throughout the distribution chain. It safeguards against contamination by physical, chemical, and biological agents, ensuring the safety and quality of processed foods. The evolution of novel food packaging, including modified atmosphere and active packaging, has extended shelf life, enhancing convenience for consumers. Shelf life, the duration a perishable item remains suitable for sale, use, or consumption, is intricately linked with food packaging, emphasizing its role in maintaining product quality and safety.
