Summary

Ozone treatment of mushrooms prior to packaging caused an increase in external browning rate and a reduction in the internal browning rate. Increased storage time and temperature meant an increase in browning, senescence and weight loss, as well as a decrease in firmness, following, in all cases, a zero-order reaction. Among all the quality parameters assessed in this research, weight loss was the most affected by temperature increase. The lowest storage temperature (5 °C) favoured the best quality.
