Summary

Fresh carrots, packed under a microperforated polyolefine film or a semi-permeable polyethylene film, are stored for 4 months at 0 deg C, at a relative humidity of 90-95%. Changes in mycoflora, total acidity and soluble glucide, ascorbic acid and bêta-carotene content are determined. For long-term storage, fungicide treatment is efficient if a non perforated semi-permeable film is used.
