Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Oxalic acid treatment of stored transgenic tomatoes was associated with better retention of lightness (lightness).
- Intervention effect Oxalic acid treatment of stored transgenic tomatoes was associated with delay in the decrease of firmness and hue angle (firmness and hue angle).
- Intervention effect Oxalic acid treatment of stored transgenic tomatoes was associated with decrease in lipoxygenase activity (lipoxygenase activity).
- Intervention effect Oxalic acid treatment of stored transgenic tomatoes was associated with low electrolyte leakage (electrolyte leakage).
- Intervention effect Oxalic acid treatment of stored transgenic tomatoes was associated with increase in total phenolics content (total phenolics content).
- Intervention effect The most effective oxalic acid concentration was 3 mM, which extended postharvest life by up to 30 d and reduced deterioration of the GM tomatoes.
- Observation Untreated GM tomatoes kept an acceptable appearance up to day 24 of storage, whereas wild type fruits were kept satisfactorily for 15 d.
