Practical Alternatives to Methyl Bromide for Use as Quarantine and Pre- Shipment Treatments in North America
We present recent advances in quarantine and pre-shipment alternatives: phosphine and methyl bromide recapture for empty ship holds; radio frequency heating in walnuts; low oxygen followed by low oxygen, cold or virus treatment to disinfest dried fruits and nuts; controlled atmosphere temperature treatment system (CATTS) for fresh fruit.
متن کاملAlternatives to methyl bromide treatments for stored-product and quarantine insects.
Methyl bromide is used to control insects as a space fumigant in flour and feed mills and ship holds, as a product fumigant for some fruit and cereals, and for general quarantine purposes. Methyl bromide acts rapidly, controlling insects in less than 48 h in space fumigations, and it has a wide spectrum of activity, controlling not only insects but also nematodes and plant-pathogenic microbes. ...
متن کاملQuality Changes in Fresh-cut Peach and Nectarine Slices as Affected by Cultivar, Storage Atmosphere and Chemical Treatments
The authors are affiliated with the Dept. of Pomology, Univ. of California, One Shields Ave., Davis, CA 95616. Direct inquiries to Dr. A.A. Kader. ABSTRACT The shelf-life of slices from 13 cultivars of peaches and 8 cultivars of nectarines, varied (between 2 and 12 days at 08C). Controlled atmospheres of 0.25 kPa O2 and/or 10 kPa or 20 kPa CO2 extended the shelf-life at 108C of ‘O’Henry’ or ‘El...
متن کاملInvestigations on Adverse Properties of the Fumigants Methyl Bromide and Phosphine. 1. Residues of Methyl Bromide in Fumigated Commodities
1. The mode of action of phosphine and development of insect resistance. 2. The corrosion of copper by phosphine. 3. The mode of action of methyl bromide and its relationship to insect resistance. 4. Residues of methyl bromide and the reaction products formed in treated foods. In this conununication are given some results from one of these studies, i.e. residues of methyl bromide occurring in f...
متن کاملMethyl bromide as a quarantine treatment for Anoplophora glabripennis (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in regulated wood packing material.
Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky), has recently (since 1996) established in limited infestations near several cities in the United States. A. glabripennis was probably introduced into the United States with solid wood packing or dunnage. During 2001, we evaluated the current APHIS Schedule T404-b-1-1 for methyl bromide (MeBr) fumigation. Fumigations were conducted in 432-liter Lexan chambe...
