Scientists developed a starch-based wash that removes pesticide residues and keeps fruits and vegetables fresh for 15 days
- PC: AI GeneratedFruits and vegetables can retain pesticide residues on their surfaces after they are harvested, while their quality can gradually decline during storage.
- Researchers have developed a wash that aims to tackle both the problems together.
- The study, published in ACS Nano, describes a starch-based wash that uses a protective material made with tannic acid and iron.
