What is Microbial Safety in Modified Atmosphere Packaging about?
This document discusses the use of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and controlled atmosphere packaging (CAP) for preserving fresh produce. MAP involves controlling the gas composition surrounding produce in packaging to extend shelf life while maintaining quality. Common gases used include oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. Optimal oxygen levels are 1-5% to reduce respiration while avoiding anaerobic conditions. High oxygen levels can inhibit microbial growth but may also stimulate pathogens. Carbon
