**5. Conclusion**

Based on the characteristic that fruit and vegetable are living organisms, the ice temperature storage technology of fruit and vegetable enable them to adjust to the cryogenic environment by regulating the precooling process in order to prolong their life period. The ice temperature storage can greatly reduce the metabolic rate, resulting in obvious deviation of breathing index from the value at common temperature. It is a kind of cryogenic physical storage technology of fruit and vegetable which will has an significant development in the future.
