Modified atmosphere package is a well known postharvest technology for fresh and long term preservation and marketing in most fruits.This study was aimed to find out the feasibility of the MAP method to Tangor preservation.Forthis purpose, the effect of carbon dioxide absorbent treatment in MAP inquire into prolonged shelf-life and maintain quality during storage periods in Citrus Tangor.Packaging material for carbon dioxide control were a low density polyethylene film of 0.03mm thickness or a mixed CaO carbon dioxide film.Fruits were packaged as sealed, single fruit per 3-fruit packages, and a 3kg package.These packages were stored at different storage temperature conditions, room temp. (20°C) or cold storage temp. (4°C) the packaging film of mixed CaO was better than the control during long-term storage.It is suggested that the film of mixed CaO in MAP treatments was the better treatment to improve the fruit shelf-life and freshness in the most cases of fruit storage.
