This book reviews key advances in preservation techniques for fresh
fruit and vegetables. Part 1 summarises developments and
improvements in preservation technologies such as cooling,
controlled atmosphere storage, modified atmosphere and active
packaging as well as barrier coatings. The focus of Part 2 is on
post-harvest safety management and disinfection. Chapters cover
current research on mechanisms of pathogen contamination of fresh
produce, as well as improvements in sanitising regimes and
disinfection techniques using heat, irradiation and plasma, ozone
and natural antimicrobials. The final part of the book surveys
advances in monitoring postharvest quality of fresh produce and
smart distribution systems to maintain the quality of horticultural
produce.
