These characteristics are necessary for the design of equipments for harvesting, processing, transportation, sorting, separating and packing. The fruit length, diameter, geometric and arithmetic mean diameters, sphericity, surface area, projected areas (vertical-horizontal) and aspect ratio of goldenberries were determined as 17.52 mm, 17.31 mm, 17.33 mm, 17.38 mm, 98.9 %, 0.949 cm(2), 388.67-387.85 mm(2) and 0.988, respectively. The mass of fruit, bulk density, fruit density, porosity and fruit hardness were 3.091 g, 997.3 kg/m(3), 462.3 kg/m(3), 53.61 % and 8.01 N, respectively. The highest static coefficient of friction was observed on rubber surface, followed by stainless steel sheet, aluminum sheet, and plywood materials. The dry matter, water soluble dry matter, ash, protein, oil, carbohydrate, titratable acidity, pH, total sugar, reducing sugar, antioxidant capacity were 18.67 %, 14.17 %, 2.98 %, 1.66 %, 0.18 %, 13.86 %, 1.26 %, 6.07, 63.90 g/kg, 31.99 g/kg and 57.67 %, respectively. The fresh fruits have 145.22 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/100 g total phenol content and skin colour data represented as L*, a*, b*, Chroma (C) and Hue angle (a) were 49.92, 25.11, 50.23, 56.12 and 63.48, respectively.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessColourFruit hardnessGoldenberryPhysical and chemical characteristicsTotal phenol contentPrunus-avium l.Nutritional propertiesAntioxidant activityQualityWildPhenolicsColorFood science & technologyAspect ratioColorFrictionGoldHardnessPhenolsStainless steelAntioxidant capacityArithmetic mean diameterGoldenberryPhysical and chemical characteristicsReducing sugarsStatic coefficient of frictionsTitratable acidityTotal phenol contentsFruitsArticle0003518777000492-s2.0-849258385082320232752425829615Food science & technologyShelling; Seed; Plywood
