Résumé

The objective of the study was to evaluate the use of an antifog shrink film, as an overwrap, sealed bag, vacuum-sealed bag, or vacuum- and heat-sealed bag, in maintaining the postharvest quality of cauliflower during storage. The antifog shrink film improved quality retention, and cauliflower packaged using any of the 4 methods exhibited less weight loss than controls (unwrapped) after 23 days in storage at 0-1 or 10 °C. The overwrap and sealed bag treatments resulted in higher appearance ratings and less curd browning and but discoloration after storage at 0-1 °C. Shrinking the film with heat and-or vacuum may have damaged the tissue, providing a more favourable environment for microorganism growth, since more decay was found on these curds.
