Artifact Description

In order to definite the suitable modified atmosphere packaging materials and temperature for postharvest storage of broad bean (Vicia faba L.), the effects of polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and micro-porous (W) film packaging on beans which were stored at (1.0±0.5) ℃, and PE film packaging stored at (5±1) ℃ were investigated. Quality indexes including firmness, colouration and water content, were investigated in this study. The results showed that, quality of beans which stored at (1.0±0.5) ℃ and packed with PVC films was better than the other treatments, and the preservation period of beans could be prolonged for 28 days.
