Effects of Modified Atmosphere Packaging under Different Temperatures on Quality of “Laba” Garlic Prepared by Dry Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Effects of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the contents of total acid, allicin and blue pigment and yellow pigment of “Laba” garlic were investigated after storage at 0 °C, 20 °C, 37 °C for 7 days. Results showed that, compared with 20 °C and 37 °C, 0°C had the most remarkable effect on maintaining quality parameters, which were 58.5 mg/g, 0,0654 mmol/L, 0.22, 0.87 for total acid, allicin, blue pigment, yellow pigment, respectively. This study suggested that 70 μm-thick polypropylene film storage bag with 0 °C showed the best effects in maintaining the quality of “Laba” garlic during storage for 7 days and extending the storage life.
