 The study examined the physical mechanical and biochemical properties of cherry laurel fruits, prunus loroceresis, during ripening, revealing significant changes in geometric mean diameter, surface area, fruit weight, bulk and fruit density, fruit removal force, puncture and compression force, puncture and compression deformation, friction coefficient, pH, soluble solids content, vitamin C, total phenolics, total monomeric anthocyanin, and total antioxidant capacity. The study concluded that the maturity stage at harvest significantly impacted these properties and compounds. This article was authored by Abubakar Altantas, Burin Osterk, and Halil Ibrahim Kalyanko.
