Abstract
Different varieties of late maturing carrots were stored at 1.5°C, 98 % relative humidity and the following atmosphere treatments: 21.0, 16.0, 10.5, 5.0 and 2.5 % oxygen, each without carbondioxide.
After storage periods of 56, 112 and 168 days the contents of glucose, fructose and sucrose were determined enzymatically.
After storage periods of 56, 112 and 168 days the contents of glucose, fructose and sucrose were determined enzymatically.
Results: The relation between sucrose and monosaccharides was highest after storage in air.
This ratio was distinctly lower at a lower content of oxygen.
