Abstract

Abstract Calcium (Ca) moved rapidly into sweet cherry fruit ( Prunus avium L.) flesh and reached a maximum in 7 days after a postharvest calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ) dip. Flesh Ca content was increased by increasing the CaCl 2 or thickener concentration or by prolonged immersion time in the dipping solution. After 21 days of 0°C storage, texture attributes of fruit firmness and bioyield were positively correlated with fresh Ca levels.
