Effect of individual film wrapping on quality and storage time of Dancy mandarins.

Summary

Dancy mandarins with and without control individual film wrapping of polyolefin and PVC bases, were stored at commercial conditions (20 plus or minus 2 °C; 50-60% RH) for 6 days and the other treatment under cold storage (10 and 5 °C; 85-90 RH) during 8 weeks plus 6 days at 20 plus or minus 2 °C. Quality of fruits was evaluated, taking into account water losses, firmness, internal CO2 content, ethanol level in juice, solid soluble content, titratable acidity. Results show that film wrapped Dancy mandarin can be stored under cold storage up to 8 weeks, with best results at 5 °C, 85-90% RH.
