Abstract

Its goal was to evaluate the effects of postharvest agents to prevent browning in persimmon fruits (Diospyros kaki L.) cv. Fuyu. The fruits were immersed for two minutes into a solution containing ascorbic acid, citric acid and calcium chloride and adhesive spreader (vegetable oil) 0.02% (v/v), dried at room temperature and immediately stored at 0 ± 2ºC and 95±2% UR. The fruits were evaluated on the 32^nd and 52^nd days to check epidermal darkness, percentage of dark fruits, firmness, total soluble solids, pH of the pulp and total acidity. After 52 days no effects of the products were observed to prevent epidermal darkness from manifesting on the persimmon fruits. Fruit treated with citric acid remained firm and presented lower levels of total soluble solids up to the 52^nd day. There was an increase in total acidity in light of the evaluation period, and small variation in the pH of the pulp.
