Papaya (Carica papaya L.) is highly susceptible to chilling injury (CI), which primarily causes surface pitting, black scald, susceptibility to fungal infection, and the breakdown of tissue. It developed rapidly at 6 °C but was significantly suppressed at 1 °C, which indicated that the papaya tissue was more solid at a lower temperature.

Postharvest abnormal chilling injury (CI) behavior in papaya ( L.) fruit is a rare phenomenon that may be associated with respiratory metabolism. This study thus aimed to investigate the impacts of storage temperatures (1 and 6 °C) on the respiratory metabolism of postharvest papaya and its impact on CI development.

Sugar-free food has been gaining popularity because of low-calorie content. But sugar replacement by high-intensity sweeteners can negatively affect sensory. In this study, the effect of the addition of sucralose (Suc), stevioside (Ste), and erythritol (Ery) as sugar substitutes on the sensory profile and overall acceptance of ice cream were evaluated by penalty analysis (PA) based on the check-all-that apply (CATA) method, with those of the partial least squares (PLS) regression.
