Efficacy of Gaseous Chlorine Dioxide as a Sanitizer for Killing Salmonella, Yeasts, and Molds on Blueberries, Strawberries, and Raspberries
Evaluation of Gaseous Chlorine Dioxide as a Sanitizer for Killing Salmonella, Escherichia coli, O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, and Yeasts and Molds on Fresh and Fresh-Cut Produce
"Treatment with ClO2 at 4.1 mg/liter significantly (a = 50.05) reduced the population of foodborne pathogens on all produce."
Application of chlorine dioxide (ClO2) and marine yeasts to control postharvest anthracnose disease in mango (Mangifera indica L .)
Mucor piriformis - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
****!!!*** "Treatment of pears inoculated with Botrytis cinerea, Mucor piriformis or P. expansum with 10 mg/ml chlorine dioxide for 10 min suppressed decay, but addition of 0.5 mg/ml of chlorine dioxide to flume water did not reduce decay of inoculated fruit. Chlorine dioxide reduced the population of E. coli O157:H7 on inoculated apples by only 2.5 logs at 80 mg/ml " " fungal mycelia are formed in Rhizopus- or Mucor-infected fruit stored in piles of bins or boxes in the packinghouse and leakage from decayed tissue, apart from being phytotoxic, carries inoculum that may easily infect adjacent healthy fruit by the action of pectolytic enzymes." "The disease control effect of COS has been considered to be one of the most important properties, corresponding directly to their possible biological applications... COS inhibited germination and growth of Botrytis cinerea and Mucor piriformis in strawberry fruit"
