Disease control during peach preservation with a berberine-chitosan composite membrane

Abstract: Disease control during peach preservation with a berberine-chitosan composite membrane.Abstract -Introduction. Peach brown rot caused by the fungus Monilinia fructicola is a major disease leading to considerable economic loss during storage. Our previous study uncovered the striking inhibition of the natural alkaloid berberine against M. fructicola. Materials and methods. A berberine-chitosan composite membrane (BCCM) able to slowly release berberine was prepared and used for peach preservation. The examined f… Show more

“…Chitosan possesses wide range inhibition against spectrum for gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeasts and moulds and exhibits biological activities, such as cholesterol reduction, adsorbent of heavy metals and immobilization of angiotensin converting enzyme (Zhou et al 2013). Researchers focused on the addition of ingredients into chitosan film to enhance its functions with antioxidant activity, scavenging free radicals and other biological activities (Yan et al 2012). Given the function of chitosan films to provide food quality and safety benefits with its characteristics, they are ideal for the new generation of food packaging (Siripatrawan and Noipha 2012).…”
