Show full item recordAnálisis del d-limoneno como sustituto del nonilfenol en productos postcosecha
Abstract(es):
El uso de tensoactivos, específicamente el Nonil Fenol en soluciones hidratantes y conservantes
de flores de postcosecha es sumamente vital, ya que básicamente se requiere reducir la tensión
superficial de los tallos de las flores, para que estás se hidraten y se facilite el suministro de
soluciones que permitan inhibir la producción natural de etileno, el cual es una hormona
sintetizada por las mismas plantas y es catalogado como el responsable de la senescencia
natural de las plantas culminando en la pérdida del valor nutricional y por ende decorativo y
comercial de las flores. El presente proyecto pretende investigar, estudiar y desarrollar la sustitución de la materia prima
Nonil Fenol por el producto D-Limoneno, cuya extracción se realiza desde origen natural, ya que
constituye entre el 80 al 90% del aceite esencial de las cáscaras de las frutas cítricas, lo cual
representa una baja toxicidad para los seres humanos y ecosistemas acuáticos a los cuales
pudiera llegar.
