Suitability Analysis of Three Quick-Freezing Techniques for Application in Bamboo Shoot Freezing by FAN Zhenmei, SHEN Hui, HU Tenggen, CHENG Lina, YU Lijuan, XU Yujuan, WU Jijun, YU Yuanshan

“…Although PSF performed best in maintaining the color and inhibiting the enzymatic browning of bamboo shoots, peroxidase (POD) and phenylalanine ammonialyase (PAL) activities were 27.76%–45.24% and 27.05%–80.86% lower in the PSF group than in fresh samples, respectively. In addition, the structure of vascular bundles was seriously damaged by PSF, resulting in 6.12%-10.47% thawing loss and more serious water migration. …”
