Abstract: Bamboo shoots (Dendrocalamus latiflorus) were analyzed for changes in main nutrients including protein, soluble sugar, cellulose, vitamin C and minerals during pickling by 4 different methods. The results showed that the contents of protein, soluble sugar, cellulose, vitamin C and minerals significantly changed during pickling. After 90 d of pickling, the contents of protein, soluble sugar, vitamin C and cellulose decreased by 87.01%, 98.17%, 71.29% and 39.27% for fermentative pickling, and 77.36%, 86.63%, 90.87% and 45.01% for non-fermentative pickling, respectively. However, the contents of calcium and potassium in pickled samples increased by 26.00% and 3.15%, respectively, while the contents of phosphorus, iron and zinc decreased by 94.31%, 62.53% and 29.17%, respectively, when compared to fresh samples.
