Abstract:

In order to improve the storage period of Whangkeumbae pears, the modified atmosphere package (MAP) was designed through orthogonal experiments and multiple regressions. The optimal atmosphere compositions of MAP were composed of 1.5%-2.4% CO2 and 14%-15.9% O2. The storage period of Whangkeumbae pears can be improved to 210 days with satisfactory quality.

Key words: Whangkeumbae pear, modified atmosphere package, optimal atmosphere composition, regression equation
