“…The use of CA for storage has proven to be a viable method to extend the shelf-life and maintain the quality of various tropical fruits (Kader 2003a, b). CA storage has been studied in many mango cultivars, e.g., 'Kent' (Trinidad et al 1997;, 'Tommy Atkins' (Lizada and Ochagavia 1997;Kim et al 2007), 'Manila' (Ortega-Zaleta and Yahia 2000), 'Haden' , and 'Palmer' (Teixeira and Durigan 2011).…”

“…Although good results can be found, the response of mangoes to CA is not always positive, in some cultivars there is only a short increase in shelf-life (O'Hare and Prassad 1993) and in others the shelf-life can be extended for up to 1 month (Trinidad et al 1997). There are various studies regarding CA storage for many mango varieties, yet there are no complete recommendations for 'Palmer' mangoes.…”

Effect of carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2) levels on quality of ‘Palmer’ mangoes under controlled atmosphere storage

With the objective to evaluate the modifications in the fruit quality, 'Palmer' mangoes were stored at 12.8 °C for 30 days in controlled atmosphere storage that contained a low level of oxygen (5 kPa) which was associated with increasing levels of carbon dioxide CO (0, 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 kPa CO). Controlled atmosphere storage did not effect mango respiration. However, transfer mangoes, that were previously stored at high levels of CO (5 kPa O + 15 kPa CO and 5 kPa O + 20 kPa CO) to ambient temperature presented higher respiratory rates. No significant effects of increasing CO levels on color (L*, chromaticity, and hue angle), firmness, physical-chemical parameter and carbohydrate metabolism (total and reducing sugars, soluble pectin) were observed. After transfer to ambient temperature the mangoes ripened normally without any signs of CO injury. Therefore, the increment levels of CO neither improved the quality of the 'Palmer' mangoes nor presented a synergistic effect with low-oxygen when compared to 5 kPa O-control.

“…However, controlled atmosphere (CA) in association with low temperature can improve mango storability and maintain fruit quality during long-term storage [2,4,5]. Storage under CA has been used to extend the shelf-life of a wide range of mango varieties, e.g., 'Kensington Pride' [6], 'Kent' [7,8], 'Tommy Atkins' [8,9] and 'Haden' [10].…”

“…Lizada et al reported that fruit of the 'Tommy Atkins' variety extended its shelf-life up to 31 d in CA containing 5% CO 2 and 5% O 2 [12]. However, these levels did not increase the shelf-life of 'Kent' mango, even when the CO 2 level was raised to 10% [7]. On the other hand, Lizada and Ochagavia reported that CA with 10% CO 2 and 5% O 2 increased the shelf-life of fruit of this variety up to 29 d, eight days more than the control [9].…”

-Introduction. Mango conservation under traditional refrigeration systems is not totally efficient due to the susceptibility of this fruit to chilling injury, but controlled atmosphere (CA) in association with low temperature can improve its storability and maintain fruit quality during storage. Thus, the aim of our study was to determine the effect of CA with varied concentrations of oxygen during cold storage (12.8°C) of 'Palmer' mango fruit. Materials and methods. Mature green mango fruit were stored in atmospheres with (1%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 21%) oxygen at (12.8 ± 0.6)°C and RH~95%) for up to 28 days. A group of fruits without CA was stored in a cold room and served as tray-stored control. Fruit ripening was carried out in ambient conditions [(25.2 ± 0.6)°C, (92.8 ± 2.4)% RH)] at intervals of 14 d. Results and discussion. Fruits stored in low-oxygen concentrations [(1%, 5% and 10%) O 2 ] had significantly lower rates of CO 2 production after 14 d of cold storage. Fruit from all treatments were considered immature after 28 d of cold storage, and the mangoes kept at (1%, 5% and 10%) O 2 maintained their initial firmness (119.9-125.6 N) when compared with those stored in higher oxygen atmospheres, which underwent a substantial loss of firmness (96.8-109.1 N). At low-oxygen levels, fruit also had lower contents of soluble pectin and total soluble sugars, whereas colour parameters were not affected by the atmospheres. After transfer from CA containers to ambient conditions, even from the lowest oxygen concentrations [(1% and 5%) O 2 ], fruit ripened normally in just 8 d without presenting any low oxygen-related injury. [(119,9 à 125,6) N] par rapport à celles qui avaient été stockées sous atmosphères avec des concentrations d'oxygène plus élevées qui ont subi une perte substantielle de fermeté [(96,8 à 109,1) N]. Sous atmosphères à faibles concentrations en oxygène, les fruits ont présenté également les teneurs en pectines solubles et en sucres solubles totaux les plus faibles, tandis que les paramètres de couleur n'ont pas été affectés par l'atmosphère. Après transfert des conteneurs stockés sous AC à la température ambiante, même pour les plus faibles concentrations en oxygène [(1 % et 5 %) O 2 ], les fruits ont mûri normalement en seulement 8 jours sans présenter de blessures liées aux faibles teneurs en oxygène.Brésil / Mangifera indica / fruits / stockage en atmosphère contrôlée / respiration / propriété physicochimique / qualité / aptitude à la conservation 1 Fac.
