چکیده
Abstract Tomato is rich in different bioactive compounds, especially the carotenoid lycopene, which intake associated with various health benefits. Post-harvest use of ultraviolet light (UV) and light-emitting diode (LED) has been shown to increase concentration tomato compounds. The aim this study was evaluate effect (A C) red-blue LED on carotenoids during a 7-days storage trial mature green tomatoes. Exposure combined UV nearly doubled total had no negative impact sensory attributes.

Development and future of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes: UV-LED will replace the UV lamp
Ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) have started replacing UV lamps. The power per LED of high-power LED products has reached 12 W (14 A), which is 100 times the values observed ten years ago. In addition, the cost of these high-power LEDs has been decreasing. In this study, we attempt to understand the technologies and potential of UV-LEDs.
متن کاملConcentration Quenching in Organic Light-Emitting Diodes
Concentration quenching is a general problem in fluorescent and phosphorescent systems. We begin with its theoretical description in solution, where it was first described, then proceed to investigate its mechanisms in both fluorescent and phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes. Two major mechanisms are discussed—molecular aggregation and triplet-singlet intersystem crossing. In the latte...
متن کاملIII-nitride blue and ultraviolet photonic crystal light emitting diodes
We present results on enhancement of 460 nm blue and 340 nm UV optical power output in III-nitride light emitting diodes ~LEDs! using photonic crystals ~PCs! under current injection. Triangular arrays of the PCs with diameter/periodicity of 300/700 nm were patterned using electron-beam lithography and inductively coupled plasma dry etching. The total power at 20 mA of 3003300 mm unpackaged LED ...
متن کاملGreen-light supplementation for enhanced lettuce growth under red- and blue-light-emitting diodes.
Plants will be an important component of future long-term space missions. Lighting systems for growing plants will need to be lightweight, reliable, and durable, and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have these characteristics. Previous studies demonstrated that the combination of red and blue light was an effective light source for several crops. Yet the appearance of plants under red and blue ligh...
متن کاملComparison of ultraviolet light emitting diodes with traditional UV for greywater disinfection
The current technological status of ultraviolet light emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) has reached a point where small-scale ultraviolet (UV) water disinfection applications, that is, for greywater reuse appear increasingly promising. This study compares the germicidal and economical aspects of UV-LEDs with traditional UV. Pure cultures and environmental greywater samples were exposed to different rad...
