Carrot (Daucus carota L.) peroxidase inactivation, phenolic content and physical changes kinetics due to blanching

The kinetics of peroxidase thermal inactivation, total phenolic content degradation, and colour (CIE L*a*b*) and texture changes were studied in a temperature range of 70–90 C for carrots (Daucus carota L.). Peroxidase inactivation, total phenolic content degradation and the lightness colour (L* par...
