Summary

These apples are stored for six months in a controlled atmosphere, in which the oxygen concentration is increased by 1 to 2% at the end of 3, 4, or 5 months. Compared to storage in air, all the treatments reduce the formation of volatile compounds. The formation of esters derived from lipids is more greatly inhibited by controlled atmospheres than those resulting from the metabolism of amino acids.
