Abstract Objectives The study was conducted to prolong the shelf life of freshly harvested pomegranate fruits and to find out its physiochemical properties during storage. Materials and Methods Pomegranate fruits of variety ‘Bhagawa’ were stored in 200, 300 gauge high-density polyethylene (HDPE) package, and silicone membrane modified atmospheric storage system at ambient conditions and 10°C. Gas composition inside the package, texture, color, and overall quality parameters were evaluated at these two storage temperatures. The physico-chemical properties such as total soluble solids, titratable acidity, ascorbic acid content, total, reducing, and non-reducing sugars, and physiological loss in weight (PLW) were also determined. Results In ambient storage, the shelf life of pomegranate fruit was 10 days, whereas in modified atmosphere packaging (200 gauge HDPE, 300 gauge HDPE, and silicone membrane system), the shelf life of pomegranate fruits was extended up to 60, 60, 25 days at ambient and 96, 96, 65 days at 10°C temperature, respectively. Conclusions Among the 200, 300 gauge HDPE package, and silicone membrane system treatments T1, T5, and T8, respectively, were found better with respect to all the sensory and quality parameters studied.

<p>Cv. Mas Kirana merupakan salah satu varietas pisang yang populer, umumnya tumbuh di Indonesia dan merupakan pendukung utama industri dan perdagangan pisang domestik dan ekspor. Kendala dan masalah utama yang berkaitan dengan penanganan pascapanen pisang segar adalah umur simpan dan penanganan pascapanen yang kurang tepat. Ada kebutuhan untuk menemukan cara penyimpanan yang tepat untuk memperpanjang umur simpan dan mempertahankan kualitas buah pada kemasan ritel untuk pasar domestik. Kemasan Atmosfir termodifikasi (MAP) adalah teknik yang ideal dan dikenal memiliki potensi besar untuk memperpanjang umur simpan pasca panen pisang dengan kalium Permanganat (KMnO4) sachet sebagai penyerap etilen yang digunakan dalam MAP untuk menyerap produksi etilen endogen. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi umur simpan dan kualitas buah dalam kemasan MAP, dengan atau tanpa penyerap etilen (KMnO4). Data diperoleh dari analisis fisik, kimia dan evaluasi sensori yang dianalisis dengan analisis sidik ragam dan uji Duncan (p&lt;0.05) untuk mendapatkan pengaruh nyata rata-rata perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa umur simpan buah pisang yang dikemas dalam White Stretch Film (WSF) dengan KMnO4 (MAP aktif) pada suhu 28 °C dapat memperpanjang sampai 10 hari dibandingkan dengan 6 hari untuk pisang kontrol yang dikemas dalam WSF tanpa KMnO4 (MAP pasif). Perlakuan WSF dengan KMnO4 menunda susut bobot, warna, total padatan terlarut, dan vitamin C dibanding pisang kontrol tanpa KMnO4. Kualitas organoleptik atau sensori (warna, aroma, dan rasa) buah yang matang penuh untuk kemasan WSF tanpa atau dengan KMnO4 sangat baik.</p><p>Kata kunci :Kemasan atmosfir termodifikasi aktif, kalium permanganat, penyerap etilen, pisang</p><p>English Version Abstract</p><p>Cv. Mas Kirana is one of popular banana variety commonly grown in Indonesia and the mainstay of banana industry for both domestic and export trades. Major constraints and problem associated with postharvest handling of fresh banana are short shelf life and lack of postharvest handling. There is a need to find appropriate storage method in order to extend the storage life to mantain the fruit quality for retail packaging for domestic market. Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) packaging is an ideal preservation technique and is known to have great potential to extending the postharvest life of banana with potassium permanganate (KMnO4) sachets as ethylene absorbent were used in MAP to absorb endogenously produced ethylene. The purpose of this study was to evaluated for fruit quality and shelf life under MAP packaging, with or without an ethylene absorber (KMnO4). The data obtained from physico chemical analysis and sensory evaluation were analyzed statically for analysis of variance with Duncan test (p&lt;0.05) was used to detect significant differences for the treatment means. The results indicate that the shelf life of fruits packed under White Stretch Film (WSF) with KMnO4 (active MAP) at 28 °C could be extended up to 10 days compared to 6 days for banana control packed under WSF without KMnO4 (passive MAP). WSF with KMnO4 treatments delayed weight loss, colour, total soluble solids (TSS), and ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) as compared to control banana without KMnO4. Sensory quality (colour, aroma, and taste) of fully ripe fruits of both WSF without or with KMnO4 was very good.</p><p>Keywords : Active modified atmosfir packaging, potassium permanganate, ethylene absorbent, banana</p>

Modified atmosphere packaging containing CO2 is widely used for extending the shelf life of chicken meat. Active packaging by adding CO2 emitter sachets to packages of meat is an alternative to traditional modified atmosphere packaging. The purpose of the study was to investigate the shelf life of chicken filets under different CO2 concentrations at 4°C storage. The inhibition of microbial growth was proportional to the CO2 concentration. Storage in 100% CO2 both with and without a CO2 emitter sachet gave a microbiological shelf-life extension of 7 days compared with 60% CO2. Carnobacterium divergens, Carnobacterium sp., and Lactococcus sp. were the dominating species at the end of the storage period. During storage in pure CO2, the carbon dioxide dissolved in the meat and caused the collapse of the packages. The resulting squeeze of the meat lead to a severe increase in drip loss. The drip loss was reduced profoundly by using the CO2 emitting sachet in the packages. The addition of CO2 emitters can easily be implemented at industrial packaging lines without reduction in production efficiency.

Fresh Cut

The respiratory behavior of fresh-cut melon under modified atmosphere packaging at various temperatures was characterized to assess the potential for shelf life extension through low-oxygen and to generate information for the development of appropriate packaging conditions. Cantaloupe melon (Cucumis melo var. cantalupensis ‘Olympic Gold’) cubes were packaged and stored at 0, 5, 10, and 15 °C. Packages attained gas equilibrium after 5 days at 10 °C, 6 days at 5 °C, and 10 days at 0 °C. In cubes stored at 15 °C, decay started before steady-state gas levels were reached. Respiration rates were measured and respiratory quotient calculated once steady-state O2 and CO2 partial pressures were achieved inside the packages. O2 uptake increased with temperature and O2 partial pressure (pO2 pkg), according to a Michaelis-Menten kinetics described by = [( × pO2 pkg)/( + pO2 pkg)]. Respiratory parameters were modeled as an exponential function of temperature: = {[1.34 × 10−17 × e(0.131 × T) × pO2 pkg]/[1.15 × 10−24 × e(0.193 × T) + pO2 pkg]} (R2 = 0.95), Q10 = 3.7, and Ea = 84 kJ·mol−1. A good fit to the experimental data was also obtained considering as constant: RO2 = {[4.36 × 10−14 × e(0.102 × T) × pO2 pkg]/[0.358 + pO2 pkg]} (R2 = 0.93), Q10 = 2.8, and Ea = 66 kJ·mol−1. These results provide fundamental information to predict package permeability and steady-state pO2 pkg required to prevent anaerobic conditions and maximize shelf life of fresh-cut cantaloupe. The kinetics of respiration as a function of pO2 suggests that no significant reductions in respiration rate of fresh-cut cantaloupe can be achieved by lowering O2 levels.
