Résumé

Cucumbers packaged in perforated or sealed low density polyethylene bags were found to have less severe chilling injury than nonwrapped fruit in storage at 5 deg C and 90-95% relative humidity. The onset of chilling injury was also delayed. The concentrations of CO2 and O2 were studied in sealed and perforated bags. The weight lost of nonwrapped fruit reached 9% in 18 days while perforated and sealed samples loss less than 1% during the same period. Chilling stress induced increases in putrescine levels in all treatments, mainly in sealed fruit. Sealed fruit and perforated fruit also had higher content of spermidine than non-wrapped fruit.
