Abstract

The use of green and eco-friendly materials is growing in agriculture day by day. Nanoparticles (NPs) and plant growth regulators (PGRs) are the most applied agents in food and fruit preservation. This study is aimed to evaluate the effects of AgNPs, SiNPs, epibrassinolide, and methyl jasmonate on the several postharvest physiological traits and decay of M. domestica var. Fuji (apple) fruits at ambient conditions. Results showed that antioxidant-related traits including total phenols, catalase, and peroxidase activity increased in NPs and PGRs-treated fruits. Total protein content was also found to be higher than control. Total sugar content and pH value were observed to be low in NPs and PGRs-treated fruits, while titratable acidity was higher than control. Decay, one of the important indicators of postharvest quality, was highly lower in both NPs and PGRs-treated fruits, improving its shelf life during storage. The results of the current study revealed that both NPs and PGRs can be used as an alternative tool in fruit preservation.

应用硅和银绿色纳米粒子、表紫苏内酯和茉莉酸甲酯，通过改善环境条件下的采后生理机能，延缓马铃薯果实的腐烂期

绿色环保材料在农业中的使用与日俱增。纳米粒子（NPs）和植物生长调节剂（PGRs）是食品和水果保鲜中应用最多的物质。本研究旨在评估 AgNPs、SiNPs、表紫苏内酯和茉莉酸甲酯对苹果（M. domestica var.结果表明，经 NPs 和 PGRs 处理的果实的抗氧化相关性状（包括总酚、过氧化氢酶和过氧化物酶活性）均有所增加。总蛋白质含量也高于对照组。在 NPs 和 PGRs 处理过的水果中，总糖含量和 pH 值较低，而可滴定酸度则高于对照组。作为采后质量的重要指标之一，腐烂率在 NPs 和 PGRs 处理过的水果中都很低，从而提高了水果在贮藏期间的货架期。目前的研究结果表明，氮磷钾和磷酸盐都可以作为水果保鲜的替代工具。
