The temperature behavior of the natural microflora on the Mediterranean fish red mullet (Mullus barbatus) was examined as a case study. The growth of the spoilage bacteria Pseudomonas spp., Shewanella putrefaciens, Brochothrix thermosphacta, and lactic acid bacteria was modeled as a function of temperature and the concentration of carbon dioxide in modified atmosphere packaging. Combined models...

‘zaferani’ peach, an important native iranian fruit, is a highly perishable fruit of limited shelf life. in the present research, effects of modified atmosphere packaging with three gas combinations (5% co2 + 2% o2, 10% co2 + 2% o2 and air) and two packaging films (polypropylene and low density polyethylene (ldpe)) on physicochemical characteristics and shelf life of 'zaferani' peach ...

for button mushrooms packaging, the packaging films with high permeability to oxygen and carbon dioxide are required. permeability of plastic films such as pvc lead to loss of weight (and thus economic value) and textural changes are undesirable for button mushroom. so packaging film of polyolefins (pd 941 and pd 961) can be used. also the new film, hydrophilic materials such as films made from...
