[In Spanish. / En espagnol.]

Author(s) : MARTINEZ JAVEGA J. M., ESLAVA E., NAVARRO P.

Summary

The effects of air-forced precooling, packaging methods and CO2 enriched atmospheres (20%) on cold storage of cherries cv "Burlat" were studied. Colour, firmness, total-soluble sugars/acidity and deterioration rate were evaluated after 16 days at 1 deg C + 3 days at 7 deg C. Modified atmospheres from packages and specially CO2-enriched atmospheres showed a clear positive effect on firmness, colour and market life. Air-forced precooling decreased softening.
