The Effect of Active Packaging Film on the Quality of Dashehari Mango Fruits

Abstract:

This paper describes method for extending shelf time of Dashehari mango fruit using a active packaging film (APF) which can release SO₂ fungicide. Mango fruits were assessed for weight loss (water loss), firmness, percent of decay, total soluble solids (TSS) over a storage period of 21 days at room condition. APF was efficient to reduce the decreasing firmness and TSS, maintain water of whole mango with any decay during 21days of storage
