Brown rice stored at different conditions was analyzed by using an electronic nose (PEN3) from Airsense Company in Germany. Response values of PEN3 were subjected to principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discrimination analysis (LDA). Results indicated that electronic nose could identify brown rice samples stored at different temperatures and moisture by PCA and LDA methods. In addition, brown rice samples stored in different temperatures and O2 concentrations also could be well distinguished using LDA method, but the total contribution rate of LDA was lower than that of PCA. The water content and temperature had more significant effect on the response values of electronic nose than oxygen concentration. A crossinteraction was also observed between water content and temperature. The Loadings analysis proved that sensors W5C and W1S in the electronic nose PEN3 have an important impact during the detection, which could provide the guidance to optimize and screen matrix arrangement for better performance of electronic nose.

In order to investigate the effect of shellac coating treatment on volatile components in fruits stored at room temperature, the volatile components was harvested by dynamic head-space absorption trapping method from the intact fruits of Citrus reticulata Blanco (Ponkan) with shellac coating during the storage period of 10-40 days, and analyzed by thermal cryo-trappinggas chromatography/mass spectrometry (TCT-GC/MS). Results indicated that terpenes and their derivatives were the predominantly typical compounds among all volatile samples. Limonene, as the major component, was determined at low content of (10 ± 3)% in the control samples, which was probably due to a pre-experimental releasing peak during the storage period; however, the fruits with treatment of 6% and 12% bleached shellac coating exhibited a decrease in limonene content from 34.67% to 14.64% at the 10th day or from 40.83% to 11.69% at the 40th day. Therefore, shellac coating treatment was beneficial to the maintenance of characteristic aroma in citrus fruits. The slow-releasing effect of aroma components could be strengthened by increasing concentration of coating agent, and the membrane uniform could also be improved by adding auxiliaries such as nano-SiOx. On the other hand, there was a late peak of for the release of limonene, which demonstrated that the content of limonene was increased from 12.41% to 19.29% at the 10th day and from 10.30% to 35.16% at the 40th day.

In order to explore lipid oxidation and the antioxidant effect of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), the prepared chicken livers adding BHT with various concentrations (0.05, 0.10, 0.15 g/kg and 0.20 g/kg) were used as experimental subjects to determine acid value (AV), peroxide value (POV) and thiobarbituric acid value (TBA) during the different storage periods for evaluating the lipid oxidation and antioxidant effect of BHT. Results indicated that except for the group with the addition of 0.20 g/kg BHT, the lipid oxidation began at the first 15 day in other groups during storage, and then lipid oxidized products started to decompose. BHT at the concentration of 0.20 g/kg can effectively inhibit lipid peroxidation and BHT at the concentration of 0.15 g/kg can effectively decrease the degradation of lipid. Therefore, BHT has excellent antioxidant effect.

Fresh Datainong mango was treated with chitosan and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) during storage. The weight loss rate, hardness, soluble solid content, respiration rate, titratable acid content and chlorophyll content of mango during shelfstorage period were explored. Results indicated that the combinatorial treatment of chitosan and 1-MCP exhibited the highest respiration peak on the 10th day. Compared with CK, there was a delay for 4 days, and the content of titratable acids exhibited an increase of 4.4 folds. Chitosan and 1-MCP could also significantly reduce the softening degree of mango, decrease weight loss rate and chlorophyll content, attenuate the increase of soluble solids and maturity. Combinatorial treatments of chitosan and 1-MCP exhibited a better effect than chitosan or 1-MCP treatment alone, which will provide a significant improvement of mango quality during shelf-storage period.
