Abstract
⺠Freezing and thawing of strawberries under various freeze-thaw conditions. ⺠Anthocyanin and ascorbic acid retention were independent of freezing technology. ⺠Rapid thawing was favorable for color, anthocyanin and ascorbic acid retention. ⺠Slow thawing (4 °C/24 h) proved to be disadvantageous for fruit quality. ⺠Storage of thawed fruits caused further pigment and ascorbic acid losses.
