Abstract: The effects of MAP (modified atmosphere package) on quality of minimally processed water bamboo shoot werestudied. The results showed that MAP with high density polyethylene film could maintain firmness and inhibit the toughnessof minimally processed water bamboo at the ambient temperature. Mathematical model was built to predict density of oxygenand carbondioxide in bags.

Key words: minimally processed, water bamboo shoot, firmness, mathematical model
