Composite bags packaging

Respiration rate, sensory attributes, change in color, physiological loss in weight, chlorophyll and beta - carotene content and microbial loads were determined during storage of mint leaves at 10 and 27ᵒC to find an optimal gas composition to extend the shelf life. The Low Density Poly Ethylene (LDPE) bags with a thickness of 152 µ which recorded the lowest permeability to oxygen (1067 ml/m2 /day) was selected and used for packaging mint leaves.

In this study, zeolite-LDPE composite bags with or without infusion of antimicrobial compound (chlorine or silver) were employed as novel packaging materials. The influence of packaging innovation on physicochemical parameters and shelf life of banana fruits under cold storage condition was investigated.
