Resumen:
This work analyzes the consequences of combining heat treatment with refrigerated storage in strawberry fruit. Strawberries cv. Selva were heat treated in an oven (45°C, 3h) and stored at 0°C for 0,7 or 14 days. Afterwards, fruits were maintained at 20°C for 48h. The effect of the treatment on texture, surface color, anthocyanins, acidity, sugars, electrolyte leakage, respiration rate, number of Colony Forming Units for bacterias and molds and visual appearance was analyzed. Heat treatments combined with refrigerated storage diminished fruit damage and losses due to fungal decay.
