HERNANDEZ-CUELLO, Geisy et al. Evaluation of Chemical-Physical Properties in Nanche (Byrsonima Crassifloria L.). Rev Cie Téc Agr [online]. 2022, vol.31, n.3  Epub Sep 01, 2022. ISSN 2071-0054.

The objective of this paper was the evaluation of chemical- physical properties of nanche and the determination of the quality in its fruit. Nanche fruit has food and agroindustry potential due to its chemical properties, with º Brix percent between 10,03 and 10,35, pH values in fruit in the range of 3,83 to 5,27 and citric acid percent between 1,24 and 1,75. The results show that the polar and equatorial diameters of the fruits ranged between 1, 41and 1, 98 cm, and 1,46 and 2,29 cm, respectively. The maturity or ripen index ranged between 5, 73 and 8,18 as average, classifying red and green fruits as acid and the yellow fruit as bittersweet.

Keywords : Postharvest; Fruit´s Quality.
