Summary

THE STORAGE LIFE OF < PERLETTE > GRAPES WAS EXTENDED UP TO 80 DAYS AT 274 K (1 DEGC) WHEREAS FOR 6 DAYS AT AMBIENT CONDITION. THE VENTED POLYLINED CORRUGATED FIBRE BOARD (CFB) CARTON (2 KG) EQUIPPED WITH QUARTER SIZE DUAL RELEASE SO2 GENERATOR GAVE EXCELLENT RESULTS UNDER REFRIGERATED CONDITION. THE QUICK RELEASE TYPE COMBINED WITH VENTED POLYLINER EFFECTIVELY CONTROLLED WATER LOSS, BROWNING AND DECAY AT AMBIENT CONDITION. NEWSPRINT LINING RESULTED IN MAXIMUM LOSSES. THE 2 KG CFB CARTONS WERE HANDY AND PROVIDED BETTER AERATION TO THE FRUIT WITH THE RESULT THAT OVERALL LOSSES WERE LESS IN THESE CONTAINERS. HOWEVER, CFB BOXES NEEDED MORE STACKING STRENGTH.
