Summary

An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of packaging (400 gauge low-density polyethylene bag) with 0.5% ventilation and without ventilation on shelf life and quality of banana cv. Karpuravalli at ambient, zero energy cool chamber and 13.5 °C. The shelf life of fruits in unvented polybags was maximum (19.33 days) at 13 °C followed by zero energy cool chamber (8.33 days), and the least was under ambient conditions (8.67 days), compared with 19, 8.33 and 7.67 days, respectively, with ventilation.
