Five wedges, one from
each of five apples were pooled together and dipped within 1 min
of cutting in one of the aforementioned seven treatment solutions
for 1 min, drained on clean paper towel, sealed in 16 cm 16 cm
polypropylene film with oxygen transmission rate of
16.6 pmol s1m2 Pa1 and stored at 5 C for 2 weeks. Time zero
