A comparison of low intensity UV-C and high intensity pulsed polychromatic sources as elicitors of hormesis in tomato fruit

Post-harvest hormetic treatment of mature green tomato fruit (Solanum lycopersicum cv. Mecano) with high intensity pulsed polychromatic light (HIPPL) significantly delayed ripening to levels comparable to those achieved using a conventional low intensity UV-C (LIUV) source. A 16 pulse HIPPL treatmen...
