Summary

The effect of the washing of the storage room atmosphere with water (water scrubbing) on the volatile production and on sensory quality of Golden Delicious apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) stored in controlled atmosphere was investigated. Water-scrubbed fruits were assessed sweeter and more aromatic than control fruit, while the latter were judged sourer and firmer.
