The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of storage conditions “relative humidity”, “temperature” and “light”, each one at two levels (high and low), on the weight and color of dried seedless barberry after 120 days' storage. The effect of conditions was statistically analyzed in a completely randomized design experiment based on factorial. After adjusting the moisture content barberry color were measured for both samples. The samples in weights of 100g in the bags made of low density polyethylene (LDPE), high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene cast (CPP) were packaged and coded. Then samples were placed in a given storage conditions. Based on the results, all the hue angle and a/b ratio have not changed in all the packaging samples of films in the condition of “high relative humidity, low temperature and darkness” and “high relative humidity, low temperature and brightness” after 120 days of storage. The lowest difference in weight was observed in both samples packaged in bags of LDPE and HDPE films, at the same conditions. Also, in all the packaging samples at the “high relative humidity × low temperature” state, the lowest hue angle, lowest chroma and highest a/b ratio were observed, whilst at the similar state, the lowest difference in weight in samples packaged in polypropylene cast film bags was observed.
