Analysis of some nutritional parameters in green asparagus spears (asparagus officinalis) - lack of chemical and physical treatments post-harvest in green asparagus causes physiological and morphological changes after packaging and during storage. our aim was to monitor some nutritional parameters in the apical and basal portions of spear of the edible part (corresponding to 15 cm). after 9 days in the dark at 4 °c, there is an huge and slight decrease in ascorbate total content and soluble sugars, respectively. total chlorophyll and carotenoid levels decrease but the anthocyanins content not changes. Higher lignin level is mostly present in apical than basal portion.
