Invloed van MAP op houdbaarheid groene chilipepers

Researchers at the Defence Food Research Laboratory in India studied the effect of passive modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on postharvest shelf-life of green chillies. Different types of polymeric packaging films such as microporous, low density polyethylene (PE-LD), polyolefin and anti-fog films were used for MAP.
A shelf-life of 16, 18, 22 and 28 days was observed in chillies packed in microporous, PE-LD, polyolefin and anti-fog films respectively, as compared to 15 days in the case of control samples. Anti-fog film was effective to maintain postharvest quality of green chillies during low temperature storage. An article about the research is published in Food Packaging and Shelf Life.
