Chilling and controlled atmosphere for keeping microbial safety of minimally processed celery sticks.

Author(s) : GOMEZ P., AGUAYO E., ARTÉS F.

Summary

Minimally fresh processed celery as sticks is available in the markets as a fresh-cut product. Usually stored at 0 to 4°C, its shelf life is about 2 to 3 weeks. In those conditions initial microbial counts increase affecting product safety and quality. The combination of controlled atmospheres (CA) and chilling temperatures could inhibit those processes. In this research the effect of two temperatures and CA on the microbial quality of celery sticks was studied.
