Description

Longxia Wen and co-authors tested how best to store the fresh roots of a prized herb after harvest, in 2023. The herb, a kind of Codonopsis, is grown at scale for food and drug use. Fresh roots spoil fast, so cold stores must hold their taste, strength, and health worth. The team set four cold levels side by side for forty days.

Roots sat at just below freeze, at deep cold, and at two cool levels. Twenty marks of worth were tracked, from looks and taste to active parts and cell stress. The just-below-freeze roots at day forty read near fresh. That level kept the guard enzymes strong and the active parts up. It held back rust-like waste and the enzymes that brown and soften the root. Deep cold and cool rooms let worth slip more.
