Biochemical changes involved in browning of gamma-irradiated cut witloof chicory.

Type of article: Article
Summary
The increasing browning phenomenon after irradiation with a dose of 3 kilograys and storage for five days at 10 deg C was investigated. The authors concluded first that irradiation-induced browning of cut chicory may be due to both an increase of phenolic metabolism and a reduction in antioxidant capacities, and second that increased membrane permeability may allow substrate-enzyme contact.
