t0“shelf life of grapes (Vitis Vinifera)”
e2“On the 24th day of storage, the least physiological weight loss (3.34%), fruit length (17.34 mm), fruit diameter (16.62), and firmness (0.70 kg/cm2) were seen in 2% CaCl2 in a cool bot, which indicated a significant difference, followed by 4% CaCl2”

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Calcium chloride with cool-bot storage greatly affects grape shelf life.
- Intervention effect At day 24 2% CaCl2 in a cool bot gave the least fruit length (17.34 mm).
- Intervention effect At day 24 2% CaCl2 in a cool bot gave the least fruit diameter (16.62).
- Intervention effect At day 24 2% CaCl2 in a cool bot gave the least firmness (0.70 kg/cm2).
- Intervention effect Grapes stored at ambient conditions were barely affected by the treatments.
- Recommendation The authors suggest 2% CaCl2 may help minimize grape postharvest losses in a cool bot.
