Type of article: Article
Summary
The effect of O2 concentration, at 2-6% CO2, on shelf life of fresh mushrooms in modified atmosphere packages was studied. For conventional mushrooms optimum in-package O2 was 6% to reduce cap development. Mushrooms irrigated with 0.3% calcium chloride during cropping had a higher rate of maturation and optimum O2 was 2% during storage. Some recommendations are given for storage.
