1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP ) fruit fresh preserver
1-MCP is a very effective inhibitor of ethylene production and ethylene action. As a plant hormone that promotes maturation and senescence, ethylene can be produced by some plants itself, and can exist in a certain amount in the storage environment or even in the air. Only when ethylene is combined with the relevant receptors in the cell can a series of physiology related to maturation be activated. Biochemical reactions accelerate aging and death. l-MCP can also bind well to ethylene receptors, but this combination will not cause mature biochemical reactions. Therefore, before plant endogenous ethylene is produced or exogenous ethylene is applied, it will preemptively apply 1-MCP It binds to ethylene receptors, thereby preventing the binding of ethylene to its receptors, which prolongs the ripening and aging process of fruits and vegetables, and prolongs the fresh-keeping period.
