Author(s) : YAHIA E. M., VILLAGÓMEZ G., JUÁREZ A.

Summary

Heat treatments have shown to have several advantages for fruits and vegetables including insect and decay control, retardation of ripening in some fruits and amelioration of chilling injury. The objective of the work was to classify different fruits and vegetables according to their sensitivity/tolerance to heat. Seventeen varieties of fruits and vegetables were tested. Some sensitivity results are presented. Sensitivity/tolerance to heat was correlated with the activity of trehalase.
