Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the generation of food grade sugar modified 1-MCP nanobubbles ranging in size from 50 to 600 nm. These nanobubbles have a high degree of stability while in aqueous solution and can inhibit the action of ethylene in different biological processes. In addition, they can reduce the action of ethylene in plant metabolism, making the plant less susceptible to water stress, low temperature stress, and stress from soil conditions, among others. This disclosure also relates to the method of preparing sugar modified 1-MCP nanobubbles, their different uses and applications.
