Abstract

Durian is a delicious and highly prized fruit. Its natural form with heavy and spiny skin is inconvenience for the distribution and export. This study was undertaken to develop the pattern of the distribution of fresh durians. The edible portion with and without seed were packed in the suitable flexible plastic films and kept at low temperature. It was found that the edible portion (aril) with the seed inside which was wrapped with the low density polyethylene and was displayed at low temperature would exhibited the best way for the distribution at 4ºC. Thus the shelf life of edible portion of durian can be extended to 30 days under the supermarket condition. (4 ± 1ºC)
