ShareElevated carbon dioxide storage of "Anjou" pears using purge-controlled atmosphere.
Author(s) : DRAKE S. R.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Pears stored in 3% CO2 were firmer, greener, and displayed less scald, internal breakdown, and stem-end decay than pears stored in 1% CO2. They retained the ability to ripen after long-term storage. A 10-day delay in atmosphere establishment had little or no influence on the long-term keeping quality or ripening of "Anjou" pears.
