“…X5 and X12 MAP bags reduced weight loss by 5to 6-fold while L5 and L12 MAP bags reduced it by only 2-to 3-fold during storage and shelf life compared to the control. MAP was previously reported to minimize weight loss of pomegranate fruit during storage, depending on the type of MAP film (Artés et al, 2000;Nanda et al, 2001;D' Aquino et al, 2010;Şen et al, 2013;Erkan, 2014, 2015;Porat et al, 2016;Selçuk and Erkan, 2016). Unpackaged control fruits exhibited severe visible shriveling symptoms, such as hard and darkened husk, after 6 months of storage and subsequent shelf life periods ( Figure 3) since weight loss of these fruits exceeded the threshold (5% of the initial weight) suggested by Kader et al (1984).…”

This study compared the postharvest quality of Hicaznar pomegranate fruit unpackaged and packaged with 5-kg or 12-kg bags of two different modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) materials (X5, X12, L5, and L12) during 6 months of storage at 6 °C. The fruits were also evaluated during a simulated shelf life period at 20 °C for 7 days after each cold storage period. The MAP bags significantly reduced the loss of titratable acidity and ascorbic acid content and retarded husk discoloration of the fruit during cold storage and the shelf life period. The incidence of fungal decay was lower in fruit packaged with MAP bags than unpackaged fruit. X5 and X12 MAP bags were more effective in reducing weight loss and husk scald than L5 and L12 MAP bags. X5 and X12 MAP bags maintained initial red aril color intensity and antioxidant properties of Hicaznar pomegranates throughout cold storage and the shelf life period. Unpackaged control fruit remained marketable for only 4 months at 6 °C plus shelf life period, while packaged fruit maintained visual quality for up to 6 months at 6 °C plus shelf life period.

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of modified atmosphere and cold storage on the quality of 'Hicaznar' and 'Katırbaşı' pomegranate varieties grown in Hatay. Methods and Results: 'Hicaznar' and 'Katırbaşı' pomegranate varieties grown in Hatay were used as material in the study. Fruits were stored at 6±0.5 C temperature and %90±5 relative humidity for 6 months in cold storage after packaged in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) condition and were analyzed every month. In addition, pomegranates were kept at 20 ºC temperature and 75±5% relative humidity for 7 days and were analyzed to assess their shelf life. Differences in weight loss, total soluble solid content, acid content, fruit juice pH, fruit skin and aril color, O2 and CO2 concentrations in the bag, incidence of physiological disorders and fungal decay, appearance and taste were determined for the fruit samples. Conclusions: According to the findings, the fruits of the 'Hicaznar' pomegranate varieties were successfully stored for 4 months while the fruits of the 'Katırbaşı' pomegranate variety for 3 months in MAP conditions at 6 °C and 90% relative humidity. Significance and Impact of the Study: It is expected that the results of this study determining the storage times of 'Hicaznar' and 'Katırbaşı' pomegranates in cold conditions had the potential to contribute to the relevant sector, growing region and literature.
