Immobilized and Free Apoplastic Pectinmethylesterases in Mung Bean Hypocotyl [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1994
The nature and the action pattern of apoplastic pectinmethylesterase (PME) isoforms were investigated in mung bean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilzeck] hypocotyls. Successive extractions of neutral and alkaline PME isoforms present in hypocotyl native cell walls (referred to as PE1, PE2, PE3, PE4, with increasingly basic isoelectric points) revealed that ...

Nano‐preservation: An emerging postharvest technology for quality maintenance and shelf life extension of fresh fruit and vegetable

Food Frontiers, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 100-130, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Postharvest handling is an important approach to reduce loss and ensure the global supply of fresh fruits and vegetables (FVs). Recently, nanomaterials are increasingly recognized for their great potentials in extending shelf life and maintaining the quality of postharvest FVs owing to their unique properties and outstanding functions with ...

Edible Coating Formulated by Optimization from Aloe vera, Starch, and Arabic Gum Improved the Conservation of Banana (Musa acuminata) Fruits

International Journal of Food Science, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Banana is a very perishable climacteric fruit with consequence of large postharvest losses. The objective of the present study was to improve the postharvest shelf life of bananas. Fruits from the Melong locality were treated with coating solutions formulated with a mixture of Aloe vera, starch, and Arabic gum at different concentrations.
