Abstract

The paper substantiates and develops storage modes for apples in a modified gas environment by creating an isolated "closed loop" made of high-pressure polyethylene; the feasibility of creating highly effective technologies for storing fresh fruits in a controlled atmosphere, in bioactive bactericidal packaging and by creating a microfilm on the surface of the fruits is confirmed. The prospects of using a progressive method of storing fruits in a modified gas atmosphere by creating an isolated “closed circuit” in a separate refrigeration chamber without the use of expensive equipment (in a normal and subnormal gas environment) have been proven. New technologies for storing apple fruits susceptible to infectious and physiological diseases have been developed based on improved methods of storage with minimal losses. A method of additional processing of fruits before placing them in storage with biologically active preparations that reduce the development of microbial lesions has been applied.
