Abstract
The storage life of a wide range of fruit, vegetable and flower commodities can be markedly extended by holding them under refrigeration at hypobaric pressure.
The product is held in a vacuum tight compartment while being continuously ventilated with water-saturated air at absolute pressures ranging from 10 to 80 mm-Hg.
The processes of ripening and senescence are greatly retarded.
