Summary
Controlled atmosphere (2% O2 + 4 to 12% CO2) storage was found to be advantageous over air storage in terms of overall preservation of fresh-cut apple. After 3 days, controlled-atmosphere stored apple cubes were firmer, showed better colour and higher content of fructose and soluble solids content than air-stored cubes. No advantage was found over air storage in relation to sensory evaluation of firmness and flavour, but colour preservation was better, mainly with 12% CO2.
