Summary

Samples of broccoli stored in air, controlled atmosphere (3% O2 and 9% CO2) and modified atmosphere (packed in BOPP/LDPE bags) at two temperatures (1 and 5 °C), were evaluated. A sensory analysis was carried out after 5, 10 and 15 days of storage. Broccoli kept in a controlled atmosphere was, in general, considered better than the other two storage conditions. Between the two temperatures, 1 °C was indicated as the best to store minimally processed broccoli.
