Elevated <scp>CO<sub>2</sub></scp> in dynamic controlled atmosphere storage: Impact on anaerobic metabolism and overall quality of ‘Maxi Gala’ apples
The present study has demonstrated that DCA-RQ 1.3 with 1.6 or 2.0 pCO<sub>2</sub> can be adopted for 'Maxi Gala' apples storage, resulting in similar or better fruit quality than DCA-RQ 1.3 + 1.2 kPa CO<sub>2</sub>. Additionally, the adoption of high pCO<sub>2</sub> in the DCA-RQ storage system can result in cost reductions related to CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.
