SIQUEIRA, ANA PAULA SILVA et al. Physicochemical and sensory characterization of ‘Dekopon’ fruits. rev.colomb.cienc.hortic. [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.2, pp.209-215. Epub 11-Nov-2022. ISSN 2011-2173. https://doi.org/10.17584/rcch.2020v14i2.11234.
The Dekopon is a seedless tangor of expressive size that its harvested differently than the most commercialized cultivar, Ponkan’s. The aim of this study was to physico-chemically and sensorially characterize 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 a juice volume that represented about 50% of the fruit weight stood out for the chemical attributes. Most of the 'Dekopon' scores were above 6.0, and the purchase intention scores were above 3.0. This fruit is promising for commercialization because of its good characteristics.
