So far different attempts have been made to improve quality of canned vegetables either through modification of conventional processing methods or use of novel processing technologies . Both approaches have their own limitations to achieve required quality i mprovement or hindered by practical applicability in terms of maintaining food safety. However limited attempt have been made in terms of modificati on of product property (in terms of pH) and combined use of alternative pr ocessing techniques to improve quality of canned vegetables. The first par t of this study was focused on searching of novel acid infusion mechanism to modify product pH at the slowest point of acidification. The second and third parts of the study investigated the resistance of Bacillus lichenif ormis spores under different treatments combinations. The fourth part of t his work was focused on the study of the influence of acid infusion on qua lity retention of carrot.
