“…At 4 DAS, the highest TSS (8.23%) was observed in the treatment combination of without packaging plus control in P 0 T 0 followed by LDPPE plus control in P 1 T 0 (8.13%), whereas it was the lowest with LDPPB plus garlic extract in P 2 T 2 (6.40%) followed by without packaging plus garlic extract in P 0 T 2 (7.03%). Similarly, Magazine et al (2015) and Li and Kader (1989) also reported, strawberry fruits packed in LDPE in room storage retain the TSS percent compared to the other packaging material. Strawberries are considered mature with approximately 7% of soluble solids (Kader, 1999).…”

Strawberry is a nutritious but highly perishable fruit, which require appropriate technology to maintain postharvest quality. Hence, an experiment was conducted to develop a safe technology for controlling postharvest fungal infection, shelf life extension and quality retention of strawberry using modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and natural edible coatings. Two factor experiment comprised three MAP viz. control (without packaging), low-density perforated polyethylene (LDPPE) and low-density perforated plastic box (LDPPB); and four natural edible coatings viz. control (no treatment), aloe vera @ 1%, garlic @ 1:1 and chitosan coating @ 0.2%, was conducted in completely randomized design with 3 replications. MAP and natural edible coatings were significant on all the parameters studied. Results revealed that combined treatment of LDPPB along with edible garlic coatings showed best external appearance among the treatments. The maximum weight loss (38.53%) and TSS content (8.23%) were recorded in without packaging plus control, while the minimum weight loss (21.17%) and TSS content (6.40%) were found with LDPPB plus garlic extract. Maximum disease incidence (90%) and severity (46.33%) was found in control fruits, while minimum disease incidence (30.0%) and severity (6.37%) was recorded in combined treatment of LDPPB and garlic coatings. The shortest shelf life was found from control treatment, whereas the longest shelf life (6.36 days) was obtained from combined treatment of LDPPB and garlic coatings. Therefore, combined treatment of LDPPB along with edible garlic coatings was found to be better in respect of significantly reducing postharvest fungal infection, shelf life prolongation and quality retention of strawberry.

“…First fruits were pre-cooled to 2°C and placed in MAP (transmission rates: O 530 cc/m2/day and CO2 4200 cc/m2/day at 23°C); second MAP without precooling; third pre-cooled and cold stored fruit without MAP and all fruits kept at 1°C for 5 days. Results indicated that MAP treatment did not affect firmness of 'Senga Sengana' while effect of MAP was primarily on reduction in bruised fruits along with non-significant differences for cultivar's total soluble solids and titratable acidity (Magazin et al, 2013). Likewise , Dong et al (2014) carried out study to access impact of strawberry packaging employing modified environment using 20 m PE film to enhance shelf life of strawberries in refrigerators.…”

The present study was conducted to check nutritional characterization i.e., proximate analysis, physicochemical properties (total soluble solid content, titratable acidity, texture, and color), phytochemicals (total phenolic, flavonoids and anthocyanin) and antioxidant capacity (DPPH-2,20-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging capacity) of strawberry varieties (festival, chandler and korona) produced in Pakistan along with shelf life extension using modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) technology. Accordingly, samples were collected from farms and local market for analysis. Results showed statistically differences (p< 0.05) for proximate composition expect ash and crude fat. Higher moisture content documented in variety chandler as 91.12±7.28%, highest ash in variety korona as 1.4±0.17%, lowest protein in variety Chandler as 0.95±0.13% and highest fat in variety festival as 1.13±0.31. Physicochemical analysis showed highest titratable acidity as 0.70±0.04 g citric acid/100g in variety chandler, highest ○Brix as 8.41±0.11in variety festival whereas, phytochemicals analysis revealed highest total phenolic and flavonoids found in variety chandler as 926.17±53.08 mg GAE/100 g and 180.63±15.72 mg/100g respectively, and lowest 864.44±44.16 mg GAE/100 g, 144.84 ± 12.11 mg/100g in variety korona, respectively. The variety chandler displayed highest antioxidant activity (82.09±6.34%) and anthocyanin (2.74 ± 0.09 mg/100g however, non-significant differences in color values. Further, the shelf life of strawberries was extended by 09 days by modified atmospheric packaging under cold storage for 12 days. For this strawberry was categorized into 5 groups with the different gas combination i.e., MAP0 (control group having 0.05% CO2, 20.95% O2 and 79% N2), and 4 treatment groups MAP1 (3% CO2, 15% O2 and 82% N2), MAP2 (5% CO2, 10% O2 and 85% N2), MAP3 (10% CO2, 5% O2 and 85% N2), MAP4 (15% CO2, 3% O2 and 82% N2). Statistical differences (p< 0.05) were found between groups on different storage days (3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th) in physiochemical, phytochemical, sensory evaluation, and caloric parameters. In nutshell, the results provide valuable information on the nutritional composition, phytochemical characteristics, and quality aspects of strawberries produced in Pakistan. This information is helpful for food processors in value addition, and modified atmosphere packaging technology for the reduction of post-harvest losses.
