ABSTRACT
The paper describes mass losses and fruit firmness changes during the storage of picked fruits, both with stalks and without. The fruits were kept in ‘shelf-life’ conditions (2oC, 75% humidity) and in a coolhouse (2oC, 95% humidity). Quicker mass and firmness losses were observed during the storage of the fruits picked without stalks. Quick chilling permitted storage of picked fruits for 5 days with not too much quality changes. Fruits kept for 8 hours in ‘shelf-life’ conditions showed significant mass (10%) and firmness losses.

Wpływ przechowywania na ubytki masy oraz zmiany jędrności owoców dwóch odmian truskawki
truskawka, przechowywanie, ubytki masy, zmiany jędrności
W trakcie przechowywania owoców truskawki określono ubytki masy oraz zmiany jędrności owoców, zbieranych z szypułką i bez szypułki. Owoce przechowywano w warunkach shelf-life (20oC, wilgotność 75%), oraz w chłodni (2oC, wilgotność 95%). Stwierdzono szybsze ubytki masy oraz jędrności w trakcie przechowywania owoców zbieranych bez szypułki. Szybkie schłodzenie owoców pozwoliło na przechowanie ich, bez większego wpływu na jakość, przez okres 5 dni. Owoce przechowywane 8 godzin w warunkach shelf-life miały znaczne ubytki masy (ok. 10%) oraz ubytki jędrności.
