Type of article: Article
Summary
The colour change is due to reversible surface dehydration. The study was performed at 2.5 and 10 deg C using a model system controlling relative humidity, at 33, 75, or 98%, and a commercial system with low-density polyethylene plastic film bags. Carrots partially regained their original colour when water-dipped, due to reversal of the physical response component.
