摘要
'Sweet Charlie' strawberries were wrapped with PVC polymeric film, and forced-air precooled after delays of 0, 6 or 8 hours at 30 degrees C to study the effect of delaying precooling on physical and chemical quality characteristics of the strawberry. Non-wrapped fruits were used as a control. Evaluations were performed after storage for one week at 1 degrees C plus one day at 20 degrees C. Delaying the precooling resulted in less attractive fruits and loss of quality characteristics. Wrapped strawberries maintained better appearance and quality than non-wrapped berries.
