Abstract

This research was aimed at developing descriptive scoring scales for organoleptic assessment of the progression of sugar beet diseases. Preference was given to a five-point scale associated with a five-point scale of acceptability of the resource consumption level during the processing of sugar beets with various technological qualities. The development of the scale for assessing the progression of diseases included the formation of descriptive characteristics of healthy root crops and root crops with signs of degradation by five levels. The descriptive characteristics are focused on the shape of the root crop and the state of its surface and internal tissue. Depending on the disease progression, the signs of degradation of the superficial tissue were accepted in the following increasing order: the occurrence of small lateral roots on the surface; rough or necrotic areas with a loose and flaking structure; depressed areas of dried necrotic tissue, with various sizes and colors and with different locations, occupying a certain surface area; the appearance of mold; transition of the tissue structure from the dense to the soft and loose state. Signs of the state of the internal tissue were characterized by color transition from white-cream to smoke-white; signs of the state of vessels were characterized by color transition from white or light beige to brown, with the formation of cracks of different sizes and with the appearance of mold, as well as by the formation of differently localized necrotic dark brown tissue areas, occupying a certain surface area; and signs of the tissue structure were characterized by the transition from the dense to soft and loose state. Testing of the developed point scales has shown the convenience of their use and correlation of the scale points characterizing the changes in the root crop with the corresponding levels of the scale of resource consumption by the beet sugar factory. Their combined use makes it possible to give a formalized assessment of the level of disease progression and gain insight on the potential costs of its processing.

进入制糖工艺流程的甜菜病害进展的正式评估

摘要

本研究旨在开发描述性评分量表，用于甜菜病害进展的感官评估。优选与不同技术质量的甜菜加工过程中资源消耗水平的可接受性五点量表相关的五点量表。用于评估疾病进展的量表的开发包括形成健康根类作物和有退化迹象的根类作物的描述性特征，分为五个级别。描述性特征集中在根作物的形状及其表面和内部组织的状态。根据疾病进展，表面组织退化的迹象按以下递增顺序被接受：表面出现小侧根；结构松散、剥落的粗糙或坏死区域；干燥坏死组织凹陷处，大小、颜色各异，位置不同，占据一定表面积；模具外观；组织结构从致密状态向柔软、疏松状态的转变。内部组织状态的标志是从乳白色到烟白色的颜色转变；血管状态的标志是颜色从白色或浅米色过渡到棕色，形成不同大小的裂纹和霉菌的外观，以及形成不同部位的坏死的深棕色组织区域，占据一定的表面积；组织结构的标志表现为由致密状态向松软状态的转变。对所开发的点标度的测试表明其使用的便利性以及表征根作物变化的标度点与甜菜糖厂资源消耗规模的相应水平的相关性。它们的组合使用可以对疾病进展水平进行正式评估，并深入了解其处理的潜在成本。
