Validation of a peracetic acid-based sanitizer for microbial control and physicochemical quality of fresh blueberries
Effective washing of fruits is crucial for safety and quality, especially because of microbial contamination. This study investigates the effects of varying concentrations (0, 40, and 80 ppm) and contact period (60 s and 120 s) of SaniDate®, a hydrogen peroxide-peracetic acid antimicrobial solution, on the reduction of...
