Brazil is the largest exporter of sweet orange juice in the world, and citrus growing is therefore an important economic activity for the country. However, there are difficulties in citrus growing involving losses due to pests and diseases that affect crops, especially citrus canker. This bacterial disease affects all aerial parts of plants and, in severe cases, causes leaf and fruit drop…
The environmental problem caused by packaging from non-renewable, synthetic base and non-biodegradable sources led to a significant increase in research on the use of renewable, biodegradable materials, as is the case of films based on biopolymers. However, such films have limitations in their properties due to their sensitivity to ambient relative humidity. Among the alternatives studied…
Citrus farming in Brazil is a highly relevant economic activity, positioning Brazil as the world's largest exporter of sweet orange juice. However, the sector faces significant challenges, especially with citrus canker, a disease that compromises crops by causing the leaves and fruits to fall. Copper has been used intensively to control the disease, leading to the …
The environmental problem caused by packaging wastes made from non-renewable, synthetic base and non-biodegradable sources led to significant increase in research on the use of renewable and biodegradable materials, such as films based on biopolymers. However, such films have limitations in their physical-chemical properties due to their sensitivity to moisture, weak barrier properties an…
