Summary

The authors examined a new low temperature high humidity storage system to prevent storage diseases. The rate of transpiration from stored fruits was modelled using environmental and fruit factors. Storage life limit (5% water loss of original fruit weight) was calculated from the transpiration model. Long term storage of Japanese apricot, grape, peach, and cherry became possible under 0 deg C and 95% relative humidity with negative air ions and ozone.
