Résumé

Respiration rate and ascorbic acid loss of spinach leaves held in air was greater at the higher storage temperatures. The low O2 atmospheres inhibited the respiration rate of spinach leaves stored at 10 and 20 °C, with the inhibition being greater at 20 than at 10 °C. The ascorbic acid content of spinach leaves at the end of storage was higher in those held in low O2 atmospheres than in air at 10 and 20 °C. The magnitude of ascorbic acid retention was greater at 20 than at 10 °C. Any beneficial effects of low O2 atmospheres were not noted with leaves held at 0 °C. Little to no off-odour was emitted by spinach leaves held in air or low O2 atmospheres irrespective of the storage temperature. Low O2 atmospheres did not affect green colour retention, development of decay, or populations of aerobic mesophilic and lactic acid bacteria.
