To reduce microbial growth and maintain quality of fresh processed lettuce, ultraviolet-C (UV-C) radiation has been applied. Red-pigmented 'Lollo Rosso' lettuce, freshly processed following standard industrial methods, was exposed to UV-C radiation from germicidal lamps before modified atmosphere packaging. Depending on distance and exposure time (1, 5 and 10 minutes), three intensities, 0.81, 4.06 and 8.14 kJ/m2, were applied.
