Abstract

The economic status of pistachios, apart from their nutritional value, has attracted the attention of researchers. Pistachio storage conditions, being the subject of the current research, have been studied by researchers. Pistachios are usually stored for a short or long period of time before distributed to the market. Therefore, suitable storage conditions are essential for pistachio health and quality. Accordingly, employing novel storage methods can lead to more nutritional benefits in fresh pistachios.
