“…Different control strategies in mold elimination have been proposed, such as washing, getting rid of moldy tissue, and keeping storage conditions at appropriate temperatures and atmosphere (Salomão, Aragão, Churey, Padilla‐Zakour, & Worobo, 2009), but these strategies do not reduce toxin levels completely to safe levels. Therefore, some physical or chemical methods were applied to reduce patulin in apple products, including sulfur dioxide, irradiation, active carbon, vitamins, high hydrostatic pressure, and adsorbents (Ioi et al., 2017, Zhong et al., 2018). Among them, adsorption has been of interest to the juice industry in the last few years due to its obvious advantages of high efficiency, cost effective, simple operation, and nonsecondary pollution (Gong et al., 2015; Wang, Zhang, & Liu, 2017).…”
