Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Irradiation produced no appreciable difference in blueberry color change.
- Observation At time zero the treated whole fruit differed in color from standard by ΔE* 2.06.
- Observation After three days the natural sample color difference was 3.08.
- Observation After three days the treated sample color difference was 6.06.
- Recommendation The authors consider irradiation appropriate for conserving blueberry nutritional and quality characteristics.
