Summary

APPLES (CV < ROYAL DELICIOUS >) DIP TREATED IN WAX EMULSION CONTAINING 6% SOLIDS AND A FUNGICIDE AND THE UNTREATED APPLES STORED FOR 42 DAYS AT 294-301 K (21-28 DEG C) RH 30-80%, SHOWED 6.3 MORE OR LESS 0.5% AND 9.3 MORE OR LESS 1.7%, PHYSIOLOGICAL LOSSES IN WEIGHT (PLW) AND 36.0 AND 59.4% SHRIVELLING, RESPECTIVELY. THE FUNGALSPOILAGE WAS 8.3% IN UNTREATED AND 2. 7% IN TREATED APPLES. APPLES UNDER EVAPORATIVE COOLING CONDITIONS: 295-297 K (22-24 DEG C), RH 90 MORE OR LESS 5%, SHOWED 2.9 AND 3.4% PLW, RESPECTIVELY ; NO SHRIVELLING OR SPOILAGE OCCURRED FOR 6 WEEKS. SIMILAR STUDY CARRIED OUT WITH COORG MANDARINS GAVE STORAGE LIFE OF 20 DAYS UNDER EVAPORATIVE COOLING STORAGE CONDITIONS AS AGAINST A STORAGE LIFE OF 5 DAYS FOR UNTREATED FRUITS AT AMBIENT CONDITIONS.
