Mode of Action |
Under normal circumstances, ethylene combines with metal atoms in receptors in the body, causing the structure of the receptor to change, and then falls off from the receptor, ethylene receptors are activated. 1-MCP is a highly strained molecule. After binding to the receptor metal by its own double bond, its high strain stress and strong receptor inhibitory effect can make 1-MCP firmly bind to the receptor site. And it blocks the receptor for a long time without dissociation, thereby preventing the binding of ethylene to its receptor. This binding state of 1-MCP and receptors can also prevent plants from forming physiologically active substances, thereby destroying ethylene signal transduction and inhibiting the physiological effects of ethylene. |

Shelf Life |
2 Years |
Effects of 1-MCP on postharvest physiology of fruits, vegetables and flowers:
-
Effect on ethylene: Ethylene can cause senescence and physiological disorders in postharvest horticultural crops. 1-MCP can inhibit the normal binding of ethylene to its receptors and block the biosynthesis of ethylene feedback regulation.
-
Effects on respiration: 1-MCP can inhibit the respiration of plant tissues or organs. It not only delays the onset of respiratory peaks, but also reduces the peak respiratory rate.
-
Effects on post-ripening and softening of fruits and vegetables: The inhibitory effect of 1-MCP is only related to the early stage of ripening of fruits and vegetables, and the triggering of softening of fruits and vegetables is an irreversible process.
