Summary

Pear wedges are dipped in solutions containing sodium erythorbate, calcium chloride, and 4-hexylresorcinol; packed in air or with a modified atmosphere; and stored at 4 deg C. Samples are evaluated for browning, microbial spoilage, and presence of off-flavours or loss or firmness. Inhibitor treatments, in conjunction with modified atmosphere packaging, controlled browning and maintained quality of fresh-cut pears for 12-14 days.
