Packaging
Olives were packaged under conditions of 60% N2 and 40% CO2 (MAP) and vacuum (VP) using a packaging instrument (Adona-ADN350, Istanbul, Turkey) using polyamide /polyethylene vacuum bags with low gas permeability and stored at ambient temperature (22-25 °C). The properties of the packages were 90 ± 3 μm thickness, O2 permeability of 30 cm3/24 h/m2/atm, N2permeability of 130 cm3/24 h/m2/atm, water vapor permeability of 100 cm3/24 h/m2/atm.
