To investigate the effects of packaging films (functional MA films/FC30, FC50, MA film/0.03 mm LDPE, corrugated paperboard box/control) weight loss, firmness, total ascorbic acid, chlorophill and overall appearence were evaluated. Weight loss of cucumbers packed with FC30 and FC50 at 20℃ after 7 days were 1.0 and 0.6%, that of the control was 2.9%, those of LDPE was 0.5%. The firmness of FC30, FC50 and LD was higher than that of the control. Total ascorbic acid contents (TAA) of cucumbers packed with control, LD, FC30 and FC50 box were 9.96, 10.86, 11.37 and 11.29 mg% after 7 days. TAA of FC box was 10% higher than that of the control. Chlorophill content of FC boxes wase 16% higher than of the control. Overall appearence of cucumber packed with FC boxes was better than that of the control.
