Abstract
Prolongation of vase life of cut lilies (Lilium orientalis cv. ‘Shocking’) was studied in vase containing 5, 15, 25, 35 ppm of nano-silver solutions and deionised water as control under controlled conditions. All nano-silver treatments extended the longevity of cut flowers in comparison to control but the concentration of 35 ppm showed the highest vase solution uptake, initial fresh weight and lowest bacteria colony during first two days of vase life. Plant or bacteria extract did not affect nano-particles stability. The use of nano-silver particles at 35 ppm is recommended to improve postharvest life of Lilium orientalis cv. ‘Shocking’.
切花百合(Lilium orientalis cv.)花瓶寿命的延长在受控条件下,在含有5、15、25、35 ppm纳米银溶液和去离子水的花瓶中进行了研究。与对照相比,所有纳米银处理都延长了切花的寿命,但在花瓶生命的前两天,35 ppm浓度的花瓶溶液吸收量最高,初始鲜重和最低细菌集落。植物或细菌提取物不影响纳米颗粒的稳定性。建议使用浓度为35ppm的纳米银颗粒来提高百合采后寿命。“令人震惊”。
期刊介绍:
Technology is an increasingly crucial input in the industrialisation and development of nations and communities, particularly in the current era of globalisation, trade liberalisation and emphasis on competitiveness. The shared technologies and innovations of today are giving birth to the radically different agrifood industries and communities of tomorrow. There is mounting evidence that investments in postharvest research and infrastructure yield high rates of return that are comparable and often higher than investments in on-farm production alone.
