Abstract

The changes of quality of Fresh Shiitake (Lentinus edodes) was studied in this research work by investigating the effect of low $O_2$ content and high $CO_2$ content, well known as CA Treatment in storage, on the respiration rate and PPO Activity that was the main factor in Shiitake quality decay. CA Condition was conducted in 3 research periods that combined the $O_2$content(1%, 5% and 10%) and $CO_2$ content (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) and air treatment as the control. The lower $O_2$content was the lower respiration rte that was showed in combination the lower respiration rate that was showed in combination of 20% $CO_2$ and 1% $O_2$ (the lowest), and the control air treatment was the highest . Very low $O_2$ content, conversly, did not show a satisfying result to the product.
