Summary

After various storage durations (up to 44 days) at 0 deg C, the artichoke heads were transferred to 20 deg C for 7 days, after which quality was evaluated. The accumulation of high carbon dioxide concentrations inside packages covered with some of the unperforated films was associated with some detrimental changes in product quality, such as swelling and unpleasant odour. However water (and hence weight) loss was lower with the unperforated than the perforated films, which led to higher overall quality in some cases.
