Abstract

The objectives of this research are (1) to increase the understanding of the chemical and biochemical processes that occur during the production of processed olives in relation to product quality (texture) as modulated by the stage of ripening and agronomic factors; (2) to investigate the effects of debittering treatments on final olive texture; (3) to use the knowledge gained to develop and/or improve production methods and thereby optimise table-olive texture
