Abstract
The harvested Hale Haven peaches were taken into storage within a few hours and they were stored after precooling under controlled atmosphere conditions with the following carbon dioxide (CO2) and (O2) ratios: Control 0 % CO2: 21% O2, 5:2, 5:4, 10:2, 10:4. The peaches were stored for 1 month at 0 °C and 90–95 % RH under the CA conditions given above, and then they were kept at room conditions (20–23 °C, 60–65 % RH) for 4 days in order to determine their maturity situations. Physical and chemical analyses were conducted in the samples taken at certain intervals during storage period with peaches. Consequently, all CA applications gave much more successful result compared with normal atmosphere (control - 0:21) storage conditions. Among CA applications 5:2 and 10:2 combinations were determined to be better than the others.
