Summary

The applicability of a thermal treatment was compared with modified-atmosphere storage in relation to chilling injury and polyamine evolution in aubergines. The effects of temperature, respiration, ethylene production, packaging and hot air treatment were investigated in relation to chilling injury. Two free polyamines were found: putrescine and spermidine.
