The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of delactosed whey permeate (DWP) 27 treatment on antioxidant and physico-chemical properties of strawberries. Fresh strawberries 28 treated with 3 % DWP were analyzed for different quality, nutritional and microbiological 29 markers during 10 days of storage at 5 °C. The results showed that DWP treatment 30 significantly reduced incidences of decay (70 %) and numbers of total aerobic counts (~1.4 31 Log10 CFU/g) and yeast and moulds (~1.8 Log10 CFU/g). DWP treatment also inhibited the 32 loss of firmness (15 %) and maintained significantly (p
