Brassica juncea var crispifolia was stored in perforated polyethylene bags, polyolefin heat-shrinkable films, and nonbagged at 1, 4, or 15C during three experiments in the spring of 1989 and 1990. Bagging mustard in perforated polyethylene bags or polyolefin films of Cryovac D-955 60-gauge or Cryovac D-955 100-gauge significantly reduced weight loss over nonbagged mustard. Bag type had a highly significant effect on CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere within bags of mustard, with highest CO2 concentrations occurring in the bags made of Cryovac film. Mustard stored in all bags retained marketable quality significantly better than nonbagged mustard. Bagged mustard was stored for 12 days at 1 or 4C with excellent quality, whereas nonbagged mustard was unacceptable after only 5 days in storage. Color, turgor, and appearance of all mustard were poor after 5 days in storage at 15C. Sensory evaluations indicated bagging and storing mustard for 12 days at 1 or 4C did not affect the flavor and quality of cooked mustard.

<p>Kerusakan cabai merah segar di daerah tropis terutama disebabkan oleh suhu, kelembaban dan penanganan pascapanen. Meminimalkan kerusakan cabai dapat dilakukan dengan menghambat proses respirasi melalui penyimpanan suhu rendah dan teknik pengemasan. Belum banyak publikasi tentang pengemasan cabai dengan kapasitas besar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penyimpanan suhu dingin dan jenis kemasan terhadap kualitas fisik cabai dengan kapasitas besar selama penyimpanan 13 hari. Penelitian skala laboratorium ini menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap faktorial yang terdiri dari dua faktor yaitu jenis kemasan (tiga taraf: jala plastik, karung plastik dan kardus karton) dan suhu penyimpanan (dua taraf: 10°C dan 15°C). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan kombinasi perlakuan kemasan kardus karton pada suhu 10°C memberi hasil terbaik untuk mempertahankan mutu fisik cabai yang disimpan selama 13 hari dengan laju respirasi paling rendah 17,64 ± 1,8 ml gas CO2/kg.jam, susut bobot terendah (3,35±1,99%), rata-rata kekerasan 3,63 ± 0,33 N dan nilai warna yang tidak berbeda nyata dengan warna awal cabai (l*=35,96±1,26, a*=39,57±1,07 dan h*= 25,57±1,03). Sampai penyimpanan hari ke 5, mutu fisik cabai yang dikemas karung plastik sama dengan cabai dikemas kardus karton, namun setelah hari ke 5, cabai kemasan kardus karton lebih unggul daripada kemasan lain. Penyimpanan pada suhu 10°C menghasilkan kualitas cabai yang lebih baik daripada penyimpanan suhu 15°C, kecuali pada parameter susut bobot (susut bobot suhu 15°C rata-rata 6,76± 4,19 % lebih rendah suhu 10°C rata-rata 8,26 ± 4,71%). Perlakuan tidak mempengaruh nilai warna (l*, a* dan h°) cabai yang disimpan selama 13 hari.</p><p>Kata kunci :cabai, kemasan, penyimpanan dingin, susut bobot</p><p>English Version Abstract</p><p>Damage fresh red chillies in the tropics is mainly caused by temperature, humidity and postharvest handling. Chili can minimize the damage done to hinder the process of respiration by low temperature storage and packaging techniques. Research on red chilies with large capacity pack is slightly smaller than the capacity reported. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of low temperature storage and packaging type on the physical quality of red chilies in a large capacity for 13 days of storage. The study was conducted on a laboratory scale with a completely randomized factorial design. Factors studied were the type of packaging (three levels i.e. plastic nets, plastic sack and ventilated cardboard box) and storage temperature (two levels i.e. 10 °C and 15°C). The results showed that the combined treatment ventilated cardboard box packaging at a temperature of 10 ° C to give the best effect to maintain the physical quality red chilli stored for 13 days at a rate respiration of 17,64 ± 1,8 ml CO2 / kg.h, lowest weight loss (mean 3.35 ± 1, 99%), hardness (mean 3,63 ± 0,33 N) and color values are not significantly different from the initial color of chilli (l * = 35.96 ± 1.26, a * = 39.57 ± 1.07 and h * = 25.57 ± 1.03). The physical quality of chillies in plastic sack are not significantly different from chili in ventilated cardboard box until 5 days storage, but after 5 day, the physical quality of chilli in ventilated cardboard box better than a plastic sack. The physical quality of chillies in stored at temperature of 10°C has better than chilli in temperature of 15°C, except for the parameters of weight loss (weight loss temperature of 15°C on average 6.76 ± 4.19% lower mean temperature of 10 ° C. average 8.26 ± 4.71%). The treatment does not influence the color values (L *, a * and h °) peppers stored for 13 days</p><p>Keywords :red chilies, packaging, low temperature storage, weight loss</p>

<p>Hen egg is the most consumed animal food due to its high nutritional content, affordable and easy to obtain. However, eggs have the disadvantage for their short shelf life of about 7 days at room temperature. An effort to extend the shelf life of eggs including storing at low temperatures and/or coating. The research objective was to determine changes in the physical quality and morphology of chicken eggs coated with two material coating stored at room (25–29 °C) and AC/low (18–22 °C) temperature. The treatments tested were two kinds of coatings, namely gelatin and lime solution, and two storage temperature conditions, namely room and low temperature for 30 days. The study was conducted with three replications, each replication was observed on 5 eggs. The parameters observed were weight loss, Egg white index, Egg yolk index, air cavity, Haugh Unit and surface morphology. The results showed that at the end of storage for 30 days the eggs quality still met the SNI standards I to III. AC storage temperature was better than room temperature. The egg treated with coating produced better quality than without coating. The longer the storage, the lower the weight loss, HU, IPT and IKT. The best treatment was gelatin coating stored at AC temperature.</p>

The chironja (Citrus sinensis L. Osbcek* Citrus paradisi Macf.) is a citrus hybrid of excellent quality. Attempts at commercialization has been limited by the susceptibility of the fruit to rapid rind breakdown after harvest. A study was undertaken to determine the effects of postharvest calcium chloride (CaCl2) dips and lipid waxes on rind quality of two chironja clones at two maturity stages. CaCl2 dips had no significant effect on weight loss irresponsible of clones and maturity. Waxing improved lustre of fruits. retarded aging and shrinkage and slightly inhibited degreening. Pac Rite wax was more effective than Prima Fresh wax. Clone 2-4 was less resistant than clone 3-8 to rind breakdown and made better use of the wax treatments. Mature yellow fruits had a better response to treatments than mature green fruits in retarding weight loss. Untreated fruits deteriorated rapidly after five days. Symptoms of rind breakdown were incipient in calcium treated fruits. Preharvest calcium applications and/or postharvest waxing may reduce the incidence of rind breakdown in the chimnja.

The storage life of blackberry fruit is generally `2 to 3 days when stored at 1C. This study was done to determine the maximum storage life among erect blackberry cultivars, and to determine storage temperature effects on storage life. Shiny black fruit from `Navaho', `Arapaho', and `Shawnee' cultivars were stored at 2C, 5C, or 10C for 20, 14, and 7 days, respectively. At any temperature. only 10-20% of `Navaho' fruit had decay, while 30-50% of `Arapaho' and 40-70% of `Shawnee' fruit had decay. Weight loss was 3-5% depending on temperature and was not different among cultivars. Soluble solids concentration did not change during storage but titratable acidity decreased in all cultivars for fruit held at all temperatures. Anthocyanin content increased during storage in `Shawnee' and `Navaho' but not in `Arapaho' fruit. Results indicate that `Navaho' fruit have a longer shelflife than other blackberry cultivars.

Sweet onions (Allium cepae) were diced or sliced, ringed with sodium hypochloride solution (50 ppm) for about 2 min, and drained. After that, they were packaged in perforated polyethylene package and stored in an air and controlled-atmosphere (2% O2 and 5% CO2) room at 1 °C for 5 and 10 days. Weight loss, fungus infection, surface discoloration, flavor and taste, ethanol content, TSS, pH, firmness, and electrolyte leakage were determined after storage. Based on weight loss, fungus infection, surface discoloration, flavor and taste, ethanol content, TSS, pH, firmness, and electrolyte leakage, controlled-atmosphere storage, onions diced exhibited better quality retention than those that were stored in air. The overall quality of discs was better than slices. Onion stored for 10 days showed higher weight loss, more fungus infection and surface discoloration, off-flavor, bad taste, higher ethanol content, lower TSS content, less firm and higher electrolyte leakage than those stored for 5 days. So, the quality of fresh-cut onion disks can be maintained properly in a controlled atmosphere with reduced oxygen and elevated carbon dioxide up to 10 days.

AbstractThe effect of storage temperature and ozone treatment on the post-harvest quality of cucumber and tomato was investigated. Cucumber and tomato were stored together with or without gaseous ozone treatment at 20 °C and 14 °C for 16 days. Firmness, color, weight loss, DA index and decay percentage of samples were evaluated during storage period. The results showed that the combination of ozone treatment and cold storage could maintain the quality of these horticultural products and decreased the decay incidence. Additionally, this combination also reduced the weight loss of samples during storage. Furthermore, ozone treatment maintained the green skin color of cucumber. No sign of chilling injury occurred during storage at 14 °C. Commodities stored with approximately 0.1 ppm gaseous ozone at 14 °C retained the firmness compared to other treatments until the end of the experiment. This study suggests a promising use of gaseous ozone treatment in storage chamber where ethylene-producing and ethylene-sensitive vegetables are stored together.

The experiment was conducted to study the shelf life and quality as affected by different stages of ripening, storage temperature as well as wrapping materials fruits of guava cv. Kazi. All the studied parameters except marketability increased for a certain storage period and then declined due to the effect of stages of ripening and wrapping materials (perforated and non perforated white and black polythene bag), while in case of storage temperature, there was gradual increase of physiological weight loss, sugar content (reducing, non-reducing and total sugar) and TSS content. Marketability decreased markedly with the advancement of storage period. All stages of ripening and all wrapping materials were able to keep fruits in marketable condition for 36 days of storage period. But fruits were in better marketable condition when harvested at stage 3 (ripe, yellowish green in colour and crispy pulp) or wrapped with black non-perforated polythene. 5ºC storage temperature, was able to retain more percentage of fruits in marketable condition with longer storage duration. In case of treatment combinations, fruits harvested at stage 3, stored at 5ºC temperature with black non-perforated polythene had the highest physiological weight loss, sugar content (reducing, non-reducing and total sugar) and TSS content while stage1 fruits stored at 20ºC with no wrapping (control) had the lowest.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v19i2.16906 Progress.

A major outlet for California Valencia orange fruit is the export market. Transit time to Pacific Rim markets varies from ca. 20 to 40 days. This coupled with delays in packing and cooling ranging from 1 to 3 days may negatively affect fruit quality at the destination market. A study was conducted which examined cooling/packing delays (6, 24, 48, 72 hrs), storage temperature (5, 11C) and duration (3, 6 wks) following packing to evaluate the effect of these factors on the postharvest quality of Valencia orange. The following parameters were monitored: peel penetration force, peel color (L*, Chroma, Hueo), weight loss, external appearance (0-5), decay, and changes in carton pack height. Weight loss prior to packing was directly related to the duration of the prepack delay. This relationship, however, did not continue through storage and simulated marketing. Fruit subjected to delayed packing, however, had lower pack heights and higher external ratings following storage. Storage at 11C resulted in decreased penetration force, higher levels of decay and greater color development and weight loss. Storage for 6 weeks resulted in decreased penetration force, higher weight loss and greater color development.
