Summary

Freshness represents one of the main characteristics of consumer choice of fruits and vegetables. Fruit quality characteristics such as color, firmness and storage potential have long been known to be related to the concentrations of certain fruit glucids (glucose) and vitamin C. In this article, three types of apples stored in chilling industrial conditions have been characterized alongside other four types stored in controlled atmosphere conditions, assessing for 7 months, some physico-chemical parameters (extract content, pH, and firmness) and glucose and vitamin C content.
