CHANGE OF ANTIOXIDANT COMPLEX IN PEAR FRUITS

Abstract

Influence of postharvest treatment by natural antioxidants compositions on the antioxidizing complex changes in pear fruits at the protracted storage was investigated. It is set that antioxidants compositions treatment of pear fruits slows down the oxidation and restoration processes, and regulates the non-enzymatic and enzymatic systems of antioxidants defence. The supply of tissue antioxidants, which influences on maintenance the garden-stuffs of antioxidants properties, is saved at the same time. Exogenous introduction of biogenic antioxidants of phenic character assists these processes, supporting the power supply of cells.
