Abstract   The  effect  of  CO2  (0.5 l min-1 for 15 min)  and  orange  juice  (30% v/v  carrot juice) on phisico-chemical characteristics  as well as microbial flora  of carrot juice within the three months of storage was investigated. Both orange juice and CO2  caused a decrease in pH value of carrot juice but pH reduction was higher when orange juice (30 percent) was added. Samples of carrot-orange juice had higher value of acidity and lower pH. Blending orange juice with carrot juice caused higher percentage of precipitation, decrease in a* and b* values and increase in L* value. The results of this experiment showed that sugar decreases the percentage of precipitation in pasteurized carrot juice. No microbial growth was detected in either of the treatments.
