Determining optimum edible films for kiwifruits using an analytical hierarchy process

Fresh fruitsundergo vigorous biological reaction after harvest and theirrespirationaccelerates the natural loss offruittissue. Therefore,fruitstend to lose water at room temperature, change appearance, texture, and quality, and thus reduce their commercial value. Kiwifruits rot faster than otherfruitsdue to their high ethylene concentration in atmosphere and their sensitivity to ethylene. Coatingfruitswith an edible film is an effective storage method at room temperature. In this paper, mathematical models of the permeability of edible films and the analytic hierarchy process model are used to determine the optimum edible film for preserving kiwifruits.
