In this study, a novel active film was developed by employing ε-polylysine (ε-PL) as a filler in pullulan/curdlan (P/CD) composite film (P/CD/ε-PL). The results showed that the structure of P/CD films was more uniform and denser compared to pullulan films, due to the good compatibility and intermolecular interaction between them. Among P/CD films, P/CD 6:1 film showed improved hydrophobicity, mechanical and barrier properties, and thermal stability, thereby selecting it for further use.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment on the postharvest quality, epidermal wax morphology, composition, and gene expression of Jinxiu yellow peach during cold storage. The results showed that 1-MCP treatment could maintain the postharvest quality of peach fruit as compared to control (CK) during cold storage. The wax crystals of peach fruit were better retained by 1-MCP, and they still existed in 0.

The cuticle plays an important role for the quality of pepper fruit. However, the molecular mechanism of cuticle formation in pepper fruit remains unclear. Our results showed that the wax was continuously accumulated during pepper development, while the cutin monomer first increased and then decreased.
