Predicting steady-state oxygen concentrations in modified-atmosphere packages of tomatoes.

Author(s) : GONG S., COREY K. A.

Type of article: Article

Summary

Increasing temperature from 20 to 28 deg C had little effect on in-package O2 concentration, but decreasing temperature from 28 to 10 deg C led to higher in-package O2 concentrations. The predictive equation developed can be used to select appropriate films and optimize packaging ratios to achieve desired steady-state O2 concentrations for modified-atmosphere packaging of tomatoes.
