Summary
With the purpose of reducing losses by alteration of tomatoes, a raw fruit treatment is established, consisting of an immersion in hot water, followed by ripening at 20 °C, preceded or not by rapid chilling at 2 °C. The organoleptic qualities of fruits are analysed after different variations of the treatment, as well as the colour, the texture and the mass losses.
