Golden Delicious apples and some pears are shipped in polyethylene containers in which a desirable, modified atmosphere is created by the respiring fruit.
The combination of allyl isothiocyanate (AIT) and modified atmosphere (MA) was applied and proved effective to retard the growth of P. aeruginosa.
Results reported by Xing et al. [ 32] also illustrated that the effect of the treatment combining chitosan-based coating with modified atmosphere packaging was observed in the controlling of MDA accumulation and reducing the oxidative damage of fresh-cut lotus root during storage [ 48].
A modified secondary crosslinking process in oxygen atmosphere was first employed to improve the water insolubility of the electrospun keratin/PEO nanofibers with high keratin content, following the primary crosslinking process with ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE), for cell culture.
Common gases for modified atmosphere packaging are carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide for berries, and ethanol vapor for confections.
The end of shelf life of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce packed in modified atmosphere (MA) is determined by its visual quality and by its microbial load.
Controlling anaerobic bacteria in modified atmosphere packaging is a very important issue in maintaining the quality and safety of the products.
Within the boundary of appropriate diameter and length of the diffusion tube, lower O2 and upper CO2 limits of optimal modified atmosphere could be used as criteria for control.
The influence of different preharvest and postharvest factors affecting off-odour development of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce in low-O2 modified atmospheres (MA) was investigated.
The atmosphere was solemn.
