Abstract

The fruits of the strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo L.) are consumed mainly as processed product, but may be a good source of antioxidants if consumed as fresh fruit. The presented work aims to evaluet some of its physicochemical parameters, including X-ray diffraction (XRD) properties, crude fiber, titrable acidity, etc.

Keywords: Arbutus unedo L; Caracterisation; Physicochemical
