Abstract:
Described herein are methods of sanitizing and preserving produce and other agricultural products, for example for consumption as Ready-to-Eat. The methods can comprise treating the products with a sanitizing agent and forming a protective coating over the products.

Claim (Index 21):
A method of treating an agricultural product, comprising:\n providing a mixture comprising a solvent, a sanitizing agent, and a coating agent; causing the mixture to be applied to a surface of the agricultural product; and causing the solvent to be at least partially removed from the surface of the agricultural product, thereby causing a protective coating to be formed from the coating agent over the surface of the agricultural product, the protective coating serving to reduce a rate of water loss from the agricultural product; wherein a concentration of the sanitizing agent is sufficient to sanitize the agricultural product; the protective coating prevents or mitigates damage to the agricultural product caused by the sanitizing agent; and the coating agent comprises one or more compounds of Formula I: wherein:\n R is selected from \u2014H, \u2014C 1 -C 6  alkyl, \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkenyl, \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkynyl, \u2014C 3 -C 7  cycloalkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl, wherein each alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl is optionally substituted with one or more C 1 -C 6  alkyl or hydroxy; \n R 1 , R 2 , R 5 , R 6 , R 9 , R 10 , R 11 , R 12  and R 13  are each independently, at each occurrence, \u2014H, \u2014OR 14 , \u2014NR 14 R 15 , \u2014SR 14 , halogen, \u2014C 1 -C 6  alkyl, \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkenyl, \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkynyl, \u2014C 3 -C 7  cycloalkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl, wherein each alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl is optionally substituted with one or more \u2014OR 14 , \u2014NR 14 R 15 , \u2014SR 14 , or halogen; \n R 3 , R 4 , R 7  and R 8  are each independently, at each occurrence, \u2014H, \u2014OR 14 , \u2014NR 14 R 15 , \u2014SR 14 , halogen, \u2014C 1 -C 6  alkyl, \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkenyl, \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkynyl, \u2014C 3 -C 7  cycloalkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl, wherein each alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl is optionally substituted with \u2014OR 14 , \u2014NR 14 R 15 , \u2014SR 14 , or halogen; or \n R 3  and R 4  can combine with the carbon atoms to which they are attached to form a C 3 -C 6  cycloalkyl, a C 4 -C 6  cycloalkenyl, or 3- to 6-membered ring heterocycle; and/or \n R 7  and R 8  can combine with the carbon atoms to which they are attached to form a C 3 -C 6  cycloalkyl, a C 4 -C 6  cycloalkenyl, or 3- to 6-membered ring; \n R 14  and R 15  are each independently, at each occurrence, \u2014H, \u2014C 1 -C 6  alkyl, \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkenyl, or \u2014C 2 -C 6  alkynyl; \n the symbol   represents an optionally single or cis or trans double bond; \n n is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8; \n m is 0, 1, 2, or 3; \n q is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5; and \n r is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.
