Research abstract
Ethylene gas released from fruit, vegetables, and flowers, during post-harvest storage and transportation, results in over ripening and spoilage. The current project focuses on the development of an affordable, yet accurate ethylene sensor for monitoring the stage of ripening and prevention of ethylene-induced spoilage.
