The impact of freezing on color parameters was the same for ripe

Among color parameters, the chromatic differences (DE) and
lightness variations on apples differed slightly according to the
three freezing protocols. Immersion in liquid nitrogen induced the
lowest lightness changes (mean variation of 24%) among apple
varieties (Go and Gr in Fig. 5a). The chromatic difference (DE)
variation (Fig. 5d) confirmed these results varying on average from
27 after liquid nitrogen immersion to 31 after freezing at 20 C or
at 80 C. No significant differences in color parameters between
freezing protocols were observed for the unripe Granny Smith
(UnGr). For mangoes, redness exhibited differences according to
the freezing protocol studied. However, taking into account the
high confidence intervals on redness and the similar effect on
lightness, yellowness and chromatic differences, color parameters
did not make it possible to clearly discriminate the freezing
protocols for mangoes.
