Summary
The goal of the work was to investigate the effect of the deep freeze temperature of broccoli storage on the breakdown rate of vitamin C and chlorophyll pigments. Kinetic tests proved that the breakdown rate of the investigated quality indices follows a first-order reaction and that chlorophyll pigments are more susceptible to frozen storage than vitamin C, except at -15 °C. Moreover, it was seen that during frozen storage, pigments of series b are broken down faster than pigments of series a, which is contrary to the effects of blanching.
