Product Description
Introduction:
1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) is used as a plant regulator to inhibit ethylene production in cut flowers, potted flowers, bedding, nursery and foliage plants, and in stored fruits and vegetables. It is approved for use only in enclosed spaces, such as greenhouses, store rooms, coolers, enclosed truck trailers, controlled atmosphere food storage facilities, and shipping containers.
1. Description of the Active Ingredient
1-Methylcyclopropene is a gas under normal environmental conditions. As a pesticide active ingredient, it is used for prolonging the life of ornamental plants and cut flowers by preventing ethylene from attaching to plant tissues. It is a postharvest tool for counteracting undesirable effects of ethylene on harvested fruits and vegetables during transport and storage. Ethylene is a substance made by many plants, promotes ripening and aging of plants, flowers, fruits, and vegetables.
2.Use Sites, Target Pests, And Application Methods Use Sites: Ornamental plants; cut flowers; and harvested fruits and vegetables in enclosed indoor sites, such as coolers, truck trailers, greenhouses, storage facilities, and shipping containers.
Target pests: To extend the life of ornamental plants and cut flowers by preventing the Aaging effects of ethylene. These effects include flower death, leaf and flower drop, and leaf yellowing. To counteract the undesirable effects of ethylene on fruits and vegetables during transport and storage, including: maintaining firmness, maintaining titratable acidity, preventing superficial scald and soft scald on apples, reducing internal ethylene production, protection from external sources of ethylene, reducing respiration, delaying ripening and senescence, reducing incidence of peel greasiness in apples, reducing incidence of core flush and mealiness in apples, and reducing chilling injury.
1-MCP agrofresh Application Methods: For use as a plant regulator active ingredient, 1-MCP is combined with other materials. When mixed with a specific amount of water or other appropriate solution, the 1-MCP gas is released to the air. Plants, flowers, fruits and vegetables must be treated for several hours in an enclosed space for the 1-MCP to be effective. 1-MCP is applied post harvest to fruits and vegetables. It is best used immediately after harvest in combination with chilling. It can be applied immediately after harvest, prior to storage, prior to shipment, or just prior to sale. It is applied in enclosed areas so the volatile active ingredient can be effective. Workers are not allowed into the treatment area until at least 30 minutes after the room has been vented.
