Modelling respiration of packaged fresh-cut "Rocha" pear as affected by oxygen

Respiration rates were measured in fresh-cut ‘Rocha’ pear (Pyrus communis L.) stored at four temperatures (0, 5, 10 and 15 C) and with oxygen partial pressures ranging from 0 to 18 kPa. Respiratory quotient and ethanol production were used to determine the fermentation threshold. The oxygen concentr...
