Ethylene removal with metals-based zeolites for climacteric fruits preservation

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Nowadays, there is a high importance of consuming fresh fruits and vegetables (F&V) in a well-balanced diet. One main issue concerning fruit preservation is ethylene molecule, a natural plant hormone that is responsible for fruits ripening and senescence. Thus, its removal from transportation and cold storage chambers is essential for industrial companies to prevent deterioration or spoilage of F&V and extend their post-harvest life [1].
