Abstract

The article studied the influence of hypobaric conditions and storage time on the selected color, textural and chemical indicators of the quality of greenhouse cucumbers. The smallest changes in color and shade of cucumbers were observed in samples stored at a pressure of 10 kPa. After 30 days of storage, cucumbers stored under hypobaric conditions underwent less significant changes in the content of dietary fiber, pectin and sugar compared to cucumbers stored under atmospheric conditions. Hypobaric storage has been found to preserve the quality of the cucumbers.
