Effect of modified atmosphere (MA) packaging on glutathione and some other qualitative parameters of hiratake mushroom.

The effects of modified atmosphere (MA) packaging on some qualitative parameters (the maintenance of glutathione (an antioxidant), retardation of cap development) and the suppression of disease and mycelial growth during postharvest storage of hiratake mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) at 15 deg C using microperforated OPP film, PVC film overwrapped trays, and ordinary OPP film packages were studied. During the first experiment, low O2 (1.0-1.6%) and high CO2 (17-18%) resulted in maintenance of glutathione and other qualitative parameters of hiratake mushroom. During the second experiment, the MA of 15.5-16.5% O2 and 4.5-5.5% CO2 inside microperforated OPP film and that inside the ordinary OPP film packages were beneficial for the postharvest preservation of hiratake mushroom, compared to the control packages. Cap development was slower for hiratake mushroom packaged in tray and OPP film packages. Among the different packaging treatments, mushrooms packaged in microperforated OPP film had the great

est amount of condensation within the packages during storage.
