Curcumin-Mediated Photodynamic Treatment Enhances Storage Quality of Fresh Wolfberries via Antioxidant System Modulation

Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is an innovative non-thermal sterilization and preserva- tion method that has recently emerged as a safe, effective, cost-effective and environmen- tally sustainable alternative for biomedical applications. Curcumin (Cur), a commonly used food additive, possesses photosensitizing properties. In this study, we investigated the effect of curcumin-mediated photodynamic treatment (Cur-PDT) on the preservation of fresh wolfberries. Our experimental data revealed that...
