<b>Chemical changes in Prata-Anã banana stored under reduced O<sub>2</sub> and increased CO<sub>2</sub> levels

Banana has high respiratory rate, which reduces its storage time. This study evaluated the chemical characteristics of Prata-Anã banana stored under reduced O2 and increased CO2 levels, in order to slow down the ripening. The atmospheres were settled at 1, 3 and 5% O2 combined with 2, 6 and 10% CO2,...
