Popis: Summary The effect of different chemical dips and plastic films on the shelflife of mature Marmande tomatoes was studied. Respiration gases within packages, weight loss and decay during storage at 25°C of wrapped tomatoes were determined concurrently with respiration rate and colour changes of unwrapped tomatoes. The quality of the packed fruit was assessed by sensory testing, and the combination of treatments and packaging films giving optimum results was established.
