ozone for 30 days at 15°C and 90% RH. The authors reported that ozone
exposure was capable to maintain firmness of second harvested fruits,
which were naturally softer that first harvested fruits, over commercial
limits even after 30 days at 15°C plus shelf life. Fruits treated with ozone
showed the highest values of weight loss and maximum electrolyte leak-
age. However, ozone exposure had no significant effect on color, ethanol,
soluble solids, and pH (Salvador et al., 2006).
