Abstract: Banana is a climacteric fruit which has an advance rate of respiration. The increasing of respiration rate in the ripening process is triggered by emission of ethylene in autocatalytic. The respiration rate of the banana can be inhibited by deactivated the ethylene using chemical treatments, such as KMnO4. The aim of this study are to study the inhibition of Raja Bulu banana respiration rate during storage using KMnO4 and have KMnO4 concentration to extend the shelf-life of Raja Bulu banana. This study was conducted during a month since from February until March 2013 at Postharvest Laboratory, Department of Agronomy and Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University. The experimental design was arranged in a randomized complete block design with 4 treatments and 5 replications, which were KMnO4 7.5%, 15%, 22.5%, and control (without KMnO4). Collected data was analyzed using F test method and if the treatments result showed a significantly affect was analyzed by Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) test method. Parameters measured was the respiration rate, peel color index, shelf-life, weight reduction, edible part, rind firmness, total soluble solids, total titratable acids, and vitamin C. The results showed that the use KMnO4 of 7.5%, 15%, and 22.5% can inhibited the respiration rate of banana during storage so that suspend the peak of the climacteric Raja Bulu banana 1-2 days compared to control. The use KMnO4 of 7.5%, 15%, and 22.5% was not affect the quality of the physical and chemical of Raja Bulu banana
