Program Objective: Program Objective:
1. To maintain a quality and freshness of bananas that permits consumption after
16+ days of storage at 56˚F (13.3 ˚C).
2. To prove that designs with a Chandra Associates films (CA Film) generate a
shelf life greater than that of design without films (control in air) at a storage
temperature of 56˚F (13.3 ˚C).
Designs Tested:Designs Tested:
A -CA Film in a polyethylene bag with 18 kg (untreated with ethylene) bananas
at storage temp. Kept in CA bags for 10 days, and then stored at 56˚F (13.3 ˚C).
C -Control in air - no membrane, 18 kg (untreated with ethylene) bananas at
storage temp
BANANA TESTING RESULTS
Program Test ResultsProgram Test Results
1. The CA films ensured the quality and freshness of
banana was maintained and permitted consumption
even after 29 days of storage at 56˚F (13.3 ˚C).
2. Proved that designs with a Chandra Associates films
(CA Film) generate a shelf life greater than that of
design without films (control in air) at a storage
temperature of 56˚F (13.3 ˚C). 14 Days After Harvest
