Abstract
Individual shrink wrapping of mango c.v. Suvarnarekha fruits using 9 J..I. thick Polyvinyl chloride cling film successfully delayed initiation of ripening during long distance transportation. Modified Atmosphere Packaging MAP maintained pulp rupture force PRF ascorbic acid and acidity very close to that of harvested fruits. The synthesis of peel and pulp carotenoid pigments rise in TSS level of reducing and non reducing sugars were found to be very low in wrapped fruits in comparison to unwrapped fruits. The weight loss of unwrapped fruits reached 5.1 while wrapped fruits lost only 1.86 after transport. Interestingly MAP fruits showed maximum ethylene production than unwrapped fruits after transit at ambient. NaCI treated fruits obtained high pulp color score carotenoids and TSS after transport.
