Effect of Different Packaging Materials and Various Levels of Nanosilver on Cut Rose

Abstract

An experiment was conducted in CRD, in which two factors were evaluated viz., different wrapping materials and different levels of Silver Nano Particles were taken to observe the effect of shelf life of cut rose. Different levels of SNP were at 10,20,30, and 40 ppm along with wrapping materials such as- Butter paper, LDPE, aluminium foil and newspaper as control used in refrigerated condition. Present study concluded that cut roses had longest shelf life at 30 ppm NS (Nano Silver) and BC ratio was highest in T 16 (AF + 0 ppm NSP).
