Apricot fruit is of great importance due to its high quality, and the possibility of exporting it from an economic point of view. In order to maintain the quality of apricots, in addition to observing the principles of horticulture, the issue of proper storage after harvesting and managing the product until the time of sale is inevitable. In this research, the effect of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate to increase yield of apricots of the late fruiting Noori cultivar during 45 days of storage at a temperature of 2 0C and a relative humidity of 85 to 95% was studied. For this purpose, an experiment was conducted with microwave radiation (control (0)180 and 360 W), storage time (15, 30 and45 days) and 3 potassium permanganate (control − 3 and 5 g) on apricot cv. Noori. Results showed that the appearance quality and taste of the fruit improved under the influence of microwave radiation. The TSS/TA ratio increased with increasing storage time, while the application of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate decreased the fruit maturity index. The use of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate reduced the rate of fruit rot. The use of microwave radiation and potassium permanganate treatments increased the firmness of the fruit tissue. The results of this research showed that the use of microwave radiation as a type of heat treatment and potassium permanganate can be introduced as an effective strategy in the technology after harvesting apricot fruits.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of silver nitrate (AgNO3) and nano-silver (Ag-NPs) on the physiological and biochemical characteristics, and quality of grape bunches during a cold storage period. For investigations, two varieties of grapes were used, Shine Muscat and Kyoho, with different concentrations of AgNO3 and Ag-NPs on post-harvest dipping. The data indicated that AgNO3 and Ag-NPs enhanced the fruits’ longevity and quality. Depending on the data analysis, it was found that the lowest weight loss value was obtained from Ag-NP treated grapes, followed by AgNO3 treated grapes, while the highest loss occurred in the control grapes. Immersion of grape bunches in Ag-NPs was the best application for maintenance of overall storage quality for both cultivars. In the same trend, treatment with Ag-NPs produced the best results for soluble solids content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), malondialdehyde (MDA) content, polyphenol oxidase (PPO), pyrogallol peroxidase (POD), and pectin methylestraese activity (PME). It was concluded that Ag-NPs and AgNO3 were helpful in maintaining the quality of grape bunches up to 30 days, while grape bunches under control conditions were spoiled with 30 days of cold storage.
