Ready-to-use fruits and vegetables are having increasing success in the market. However fresh-cut produce deteriorates faster than intact produce. This is a substantial problem, considering that fresh-cut fruits and vegetables are living and breathing during and after processing, and therefore they are subject to constant and irreversible deterioration. This work covers the basics of the subject of fresh-cuts through quality preservation, nutritional losses, physiology, and safety to industry oriented advancements in sanitization, coatings, packaging, set up of industry and hurdle technology.
