Notes:
The flavor quality of juice products from early- (Hamlin), mid- (Pineapple) and late-season (Valencia) oranges sprayed with abscission chemicals to aid in mechanical harvesting, was evaluated and compared with that of similar juice products from untreated fruit. Four commercially available abscission agents were included in this study: Acti Aid®, Release®, Pik-Off® and ethephon. An expert taste panel distinguished experimental from control juice samples in most tests and generally preferred juice products made from control oranges.
