Summary
The results of this study indicated that to preserve ascorbic acid and glutathione simultaneously in stored asparagus through modified atmosphere packaging under high CO2 and low O2 conditions, O2 concentration levels must be selected between 1 and 6% in such a way so as to get acceptable retention levels of ascorbic acid and glutathione.
