Abstract:
Retail packaging in heat-shrinkable plastic films, either perforated or not, prevented shriveling, delayed over-ripening and to a certain extent reduced decay incidence of 'Tommy Atkins' mangoes. Non-perforated films reduced fruit weight loss during three weeks of storage at 14°C and one additional week at 17°C by 70-90%, while the perforated ones saved 25 to 55% of the weight loss, depending on perforation level. Packaging in non-perforated films inhibited certain ripening-associated processes (peel degreening, acidity decline). Perforated films allowed fruit to reach full ripeness within the retail package. Addition of Ca(OH)2-containing sachets (CO 2 absorbers) into non-perforated packages enabled a combination of yellow peel color with minimal weight loss, but increased the decay incidence.
