Influence of lipid antioxidants on soybean seed storage life
In-storage losses of seed vigor, i.e., aging, that occur between harvest and planting may leave soybeans essentially worthless as seed. Peroxidation of lipids, with resultant loss of membrane integrity, is theorized to be a primary event in seed aging. Lipid antioxidants might have the potential to …

Storage life of fresh whitefish fillets in grass fiber boxes and expanded polystyrene boxes
… preserving the quality and extending the shelf life of fresh fish. Expanded polystyrene (EPS) packaging is widely used in storage and transportation of fresh fish. Numerous studies have declared that a significant percentage of polystyrene boxes are collected in landfills after being used and …

Effect of dietary fats and antioxidants on the frozen storage life of cooked pork products
… of bacon was examined over 16 weeks of frozen storage and that of wieners during ten months frozen storage. Lipid oxidation in the products was measured by means of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), fluorescence shift and sensory evaluation. The fluorescence shift method was …

Effects of priming and stage of development on vigor and longevity of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) seeds
… harvest time for best seed quality and long-term storage. Several types of osmotic and matric priming treatments were investigated to determine the optimal treatment for maximal seed vigor and to test the effects of priming on seed storage life. The most effective priming treatments for improved …

Produce condition after holding at a range of storage temperatures
The effect of a range of storage temperatures on produce condition was studied. Two or three cultivars or peaches, nectarines, plums, apricots, strawberries, grapes, pears, peppers, one cultivar of blackberries, tomatoes, and cabbages were chosen for the experiment. The storage temperatures (21°C, …

Use of modified atmosphere packaging to extend the shelf-life of whole and pre-cut lettuce
… air freight. Furthermore, additional shelf-life of pre-cut lettuce on domestic markets will provide greater flexibility during distribution and marketing, since storage life of these products decreases rapidly after processing.

Dissecting the Transcriptional Regulatory Network Underlying Plant Wound Suberin Biosynthesis
… 20-40% of cultivated potatoes are lost during storage equating to approximately $1.2 billion in lost potential revenue each year. Wounding during mechanical harvesting and post-harvest handling results in tuber desiccation and provides an entry point for pathogens. Poor wound healing is the …

Use of modified atmosphere technology to maintain quality of direct-set cottage cheese
… towards this decline, including limited shelf-life. Cottage cheese shelf-life is estimated to be 10-21 days, in standard, non-barrier containers held at refrigeration temperatures. Shelf-life is shortened when aerobic, psychrotrophic microorganisms grow at refrigeration temperatures, producing …

Stabilisation of isocyanate cross linked polybutadiene binder
… motors containing this propellant require a storage life of at least 20 years. During storage it has been found that the important rubbery properties of the binder can be lost due to oxidative cross-linking of the polybutadiene chains. This could cause catastrophic failure when the rocket …
