Quality of "Reus" hazelnuts under different storage conditions.

Summary

The Negret hazelnut variety was stored in modified atmospheres. The unshelled hazelnuts were stored with different oxygen concentrations (1, 5, 10 and 20% O2) at two different temperatures (7 and 25 °C). The quality of the hazelnuts during storage was monitored. After a one-year storage period, none of the storage modes had given rise to serious rancidity. Nevertheless, autoxidation was significantly reduced and lipid rancidity delayed at low temperature in less than 10% O2 atmosphere.
