Type of article: Article

Summary

EIGHTEEN LINES OF GRAPES WERE STORED FOR 9 WEEKS AT 273 K (0 DEG C) IN 5.7-LITER TELESCOPING, CORRUGATED CARDBOARD SHIPPING CONTAINERS WITH POLYETHYLENE LINERS, WITH AND WITHOUT SO2 GENERATORS. DECAY DURING STORAGE WITHOUT SO2 VARIED GREATLY AMONG LINES (0 TO 81%). SO2 FOR THE ENTIRE 9 WEEKS ELIMINATED DECAY OF MOST GRAPE LOTS. THE GENERATORS PRODUCING SO2 FOR ONLY 2 WEEKS PERMITTED 4 TIMES AS MUCH DECAY. TWO WEEKS OF SO2 PERMITTED ONLY ONE-FIFTH AS MUCH DECAY AS THAT ASSOCIATED WITH NO SO2.
