“…The significant reduction effects of ethylene absorbents on LOX activity in plums may be ascribed to their effects on delaying the ripening process by absorbing the ethylene produced inside the box. Further, LOX activity increased progressively with the increase in storage period in both the stages of maturity, the maximum being on the 15th day of storage, which might be due to progressive increase in fruit senescence with the storage period [19,20].…”

“…The other absorbents (KMnO 4 -impregnated chalks and newspaper shreds) showed intermediate results for PG activity in both stages of maturity (figure 5) (P ≤ 0.05). The PG activity showed a continuous increase with the increase in storage period in both stages of maturity, the maximum being on the 15th day of storage, which might be due to progressive increase in fruit senescence and fruit softening [19,20].…”

“…The data generated by these studies (acute, short-term, and chronic toxicity) are then to be submitted to the respective food and drug administrative bodies of the country for approval. Many gums and mucilages are however obtained from edible sources such as mango (Mangifera indica L., family Anacardiaceae), papaya (Carica papaya L., family Caricaceae), banana (Musa acuminata, family Musaceae), carambola (Averrhoa carambola L., family Oxalidaceae), and guava (Psidium guajava L., family Myrtaceae) (Chin et al 1999), and this makes them a suitable candidate for use in oral drug delivery applications where the toxicity-related regulatory issues can be easily addressed on the ground of their generally recognized as safe (GRAS) status.…”

“…The process of ripening and softening was delayed in transgenic anti-PG tomato [7] . PG was testified to be a cell wall hydrolase in fruit softening and its effect on softening was mainly manifested in the late ripening [8] . Recent studies indicate that many new genes were involved in fruit ripening and softening, such as the extension of protein (expansin, EXP) [9] , lipoxygenase (LOX) [10] , pectin lyase (pectate lyases) [11] , and β-galactosidase [12] .…”
