Summary

During storage in modified atmospheres, anthocyanins increased at 1 deg C, but decreased at 8 and 4 deg C. Compared with storage at 1 deg C for 7 days in perforated oriented polypropylene bags, unperforated oriented polypropylene bags maintained the pigments better. However, stored an additional 4-day period at 4 deg C to simulate domestic storage, they were better preserved in perforated films.
