Résumé

This investigation was carried out on pumpkin in minimally processed form, packed in different polymeric film bags, creating an active equilibrium modified atmosphere for the extension of storage life. Minimally processed pumpkin could be stored for a period of 25 days at 5 plus or minus 2 °C under modified atmosphere packaging with a minimum physiological loss in weight of 0.06% and marginally low changes in biochemical constituents. The microbial loads of mesophilic aerobes and coliforms were less than threshold level. There was no growth of yeasts and moulds or mesophilic spore formers at the end of the storage period.
