CONCLUSION
CR-10® was shown to be extremely effective in not only preventing the fungus (/fungi) and bacteria from affecting bell peppers but also effective in killing the fungi and bacteria in the affected fruits.
In addition, using CR-10® has extended the shelf-life of the bell peppers by seven additional days (33% added shelf-life for the produce). We believe similar results can be achieved with all the varieties of nightshades (tomatoes, zucchinis, etc.).
(Note: previous tests on zucchinis have shown similar results.)
This will help growers around the world ship more usable fruits and reduce waste in grocery stores. In addition, this will allow food packers, exporters, and distributors to open new markets that were so far not reachable because of the length of the shelf-life.
