Impact des conditions d'entreposage sur le développement des composés volatils des carottes.

The effect of storage conditions on the development of carrot volatiles.

Résumé

Carrots were processed (grated) and stored up to 4 months at -24 °C (frozen storage) or the roots were stored up to 4 months at 1 °C (cold storage) and processed (grated). Volatiles from the grated carrots were collected by dynamic headspace sampling and analysed by GC-FID, GC-MS and GC-olfactometry. Although the carrots were considered mature at harvest, there was a considerable increase in the total concentration of volatiles during cold storage. In contrast, the concentration was unchanged in the frozen carrot shreds. The volatiles were divided into three odour classes: "carrot top", "fruity" and "woody", based on their olfactory description using GC-olfactometry. It was in particular, the "woody" odour class that increased during cold storage.
