The influence of temperature (1 or 5 deg C), packaging film (perforated or non-perforated polypropylene, 35 micro m) and passive or active modified atmosphere, on the browning and spoilage of minimally processed Romaine lettuce was studied. In addition, the use of chlorine and citric acid was assessed. No differences in texture and aroma were detected between the different treatments. Leaf edge browning was the worst problem in all treatments. The perforated film reduced this disorder but not completely.
