Abstract: Harvested fruits and vegetables are highly perishable agricultural commodities and their damaged tissues themselves function as an excellent substrate for the growth of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. In this research, we focused on the application of power ultrasound combined peracetic acid in the preservation of postharvest fruits and vegetables. Due to the fact that power ultrasound causes the disruption of microorganism cells, eliminates residual pesticides this technology has been applied in food sterilization.
