Abstract
Effect of nitric oxide (NO) treatment on physiology and quality characteristics of peaches (Prunus persica L. Batsch) was determined. Peaches were treated for 4 hr with NO (0, 10, 100 ppm) gas under oxygen-free atmosphere at , packaged with 0.05-mm LDPE film, and stored at for 15 days. Treatment with 100 ppm NO reduced the ethylene production and the loss of flesh firmness in peaches, but did not affect soluble solids, titratable acidity, and surface color. Oxygen-free atmosphere induced the reduction of respiration rate and ethylene production. Modified atmosphere packaging retarded the loss of flesh firmness and surface greenness, but decreased soluble solids and titratable acidity regardless of NO treatment.
