Summary

The quality of stored wild lowbush blueberries was examined with different prepacking temperatures, delay times, and subsequent storage times at 0 deg C. All factors were considered both individually and in combination. Quality after storage was defined by changes in ten attributes: split berries, bloom, firmness, weight loss, moisture, soluble solids, titratable acids, pH, microbial counts, and marketable berries.
