Cover Story: Packages associated with SO2-generating pads have been used to extend the refrigerated storage of table grapes. Recently, a field ultrafast SO2-generating pad was designed to be used before packing the bunches as an alternative for eradicating fungi spores from the berry skin. This technology aims to reduce the risk of gray mold further and enhance the effect of SO2-generating pads used in packing grapes during cold storage, if necessary. Additionally, this new type of SO2-releasing pad does not lead to any safety risks to the consumption of grapes because of the low residual level of SO2View this paper
