Abstract: The dataset contained the raw data from the study entitled 'Physical-chemical and microbiological characterisation of three powdered products obtained from blueberry pomace: skins and seeds'. The analysed parameters included proximate composition, mineral content, total phenolic content, total anthocyanin content, antioxidant activity (ABTS), and individual anthocyanins and phenolic compounds. The microorganisms studied were aerobic mesophilic bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae, lactic acid bacteria, Bacillus spp. and Clostridium spp. The data also included the results of a heat treatment at 90 °C for 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes. 3.
