What is Ethylene Scavenging with Gelatin-TiO2 Foam about?
The study evaluates the use of gelatin-TiO2-coated expanded polyethylene foam nets as ethylene scavengers to delay the ripening of climacteric fruits, specifically papayas. Results indicate that the treated fruits exhibited a 60% reduction in ethylene accumulation and better preservation of quality compared to control samples over four days under UV-A light. The findings suggest that this nanocomposite technology effectively postpones fruit ripening and enhances postharvest quality.
