Postharvest treatments for 'Manfalouty' pomegranate

‘Manfalouty’ pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) fruits were obtained from a private orchard in Assiut Governorate. This study was conducted in 2021 and 2022. were harvested in mid-October, fully matured as followed in commercial practice, and transported to the postharvest handling lab. at the Horticulture Research Institute (Giza Governorate, Egypt) to study the effect of different postharvest treatments on quality and pomegranate arils. The substances used in this experiment were: chitosan from Acros-organics Company, Morris Plains, NJ, USA. Citric acid, sodium citrate, and sodium hydroxide were obtained from (El Nasr Pharmaceutical Chemicals Company, Cairo, Egypt). Glycerin and calcium hypochlorite were obtained from (El-Gomhouria chemical company, Cairo, Egypt). ZnONPs were obtained from the Nanotechnology & Advanced Material Center Lab, Agriculture Research Center, Giza, Egypt. Ethyl alcohol is 95% produced by El-Gamhoria Company Egypt. Tween was obtained from Win Lab Company (London, UK). Glacial acetic acid was obtained from (Acmatic For Chemicals & Lab. Equipment Company, Cairo, Egypt).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
