Physicochemical and sensory characterization of ‘Dekopon’ fruits

Dekopon is a seedless tangor of expressive size and its harvest is not the same as Ponkan’s, which has been the most commercialized cultivar. The aim of this study was to characterize physico-chemically and sensorially this tangor, through evaluations of soluble solids, acidity, ratio, vitamin C, di...

description Dekopon is a seedless tangor of expressive size and its harvest is not the same as Ponkan’s, which has been the most commercialized cultivar. The aim of this study was to characterize physico-chemically and sensorially this tangor, through evaluations of soluble solids, acidity, ratio, vitamin C, diameter, peel thickness, firmness, juice volume and sensory impressions on taste, appearance, aroma, texture, overall impression and purchase intention. High levels of vitamin C and the volume of juice which correspond to about 50% of the weight of the fruit stood out regarding the chemical attributes. Most of the scores attributed to 'Dekopon' were above 6.0 and the ones of purchase intention were above 3.0. The fruit can be considered promising to be commercialized due to its good characteristics.

Dekopon es un tangor sin semillas de tamaño expresivo y su cosecha no es la misma que el Ponkan, que ha sido el cultivar más comercializada. El objetivo de este estudio fue caracterizar fisicoquímica y sensorialmente este tangor, a través de evaluaciones de sólidos solubles, acidez, proporción, vitamina C, diámetro, grosor de la cáscara, firmeza, volumen de jugo e impresiones sensoriales sobre sabor, apariencia, aroma, textura, impresión general e intención de compra. Se destacaron los altos niveles de vitamina C y el volumen de jugo que corresponde a aproximadamente al 50% del peso de la fruta con respecto a los atributos químicos. La mayoría de los puntajes atribuidos a 'Dekopon' estaban por encima de 6.0 y los de intención de compra estaban por encima de 3.0. La fruta puede considerarse prometedora para ser comercializada debido a sus buenas características.
