Summary

Italian translation of an article published in "Revue Générale du Froid", n. 967 (see IIR Bulletin 97-5, 97-2916). Darestival variety strawberries were chilled with three different treatments: non-spraying treatment with almost-saturated cold air, and two spraying treatments, one with "low" water content (9 grammes/kilogramme of strawberries) and the other with a "high" water content (19 grammes/kilogramme of strawberries). The strawberries were then stored for 7 days at 6 deg C. The spraying technique widely used for meat seems to be quite suitable for improving the keeping quality of fruit and vegetables.
