| Abstract: | A monoterpene, D-carvone or (4S)-(+)-carvone, present in the essential oil of caraway seeds (Carum carvi L.), acts as a sprouting inhibitor agent for potato tubers in storage. The aim of the present study was to investigate the
possibility of using carvone/β-cyclodextrin inclusion compound as a sprout inhibitor agent for potato tubers. A Raman study
of the interactions between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and included carvone molecule in solid state is also reported; the results
confirm the synthesis of inclusion compound at pilot scale level. |
