Overview

In vitro antifungal assays demonstrated carvacrol-loaded nanoliposomes reduce kiwifruit soft rot, suggesting a stable and low cytotoxic option for postharvest management.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of carvacrol-loaded nanoliposomes in preventing kiwifruit soft rot during storage.
  • Carvacrol-loaded nanoliposomes were prepared via O/W emulsification-solvent evaporation method.
  • Physicochemical properties were characterized using laser particle size analysis, FTIR, and transmission electron microscopy.
  • Antifungal activity was assessed through in vitro assays and fruit storage experiments.
  • CAR@NL exhibited an average particle size of approximately 280 nm and an encapsulation efficiency of 85.75%.
  • The EC50 value for CAR@NL was found to be 41.76 mg/L, indicating strong antifungal activity.
  • Flow cytometric analysis showed a lower cytotoxicity of CAR@NL compared to carbendazim, with a 5.22% apoptosis rate in the treated group.
