Abstract
The aim of this work was to determine the effect of immersion in hydrogen peroxide on the quality of the shredded celeriac packaged in modified atmosphere. It was found that the immersion in H2O2 solutions and modified atmosphere packaging containing CO2 improved lightness L*, sensory attributes and microbiological quality of the product in comparison with other samples immersed in distilled water and packaged in the air. Atmosphere containing 10% CO2, 2% O2 and 88% N2 was the most effective in the inhibition of the growth of microorganisms of the shredded celeriac.
