Alginate Oligosaccharide Treatment Delayed Postharvest Blueberry Softening by Modulating Water Mobility and ROS Metabolism

Blueberries last a short storage time at 20 °C after harvest, rapidly softening and deteriorating. This study demonstrates that treatment with alginate oligosaccharide (AOS) could effectively retard this softening process. AOS treatment slowed down the loss of water inside the fruit, and enhancing the enzymatic activ...
