Artificially ripen fruits have been prohibited in Karachi

Chemicals that are used to artificially ripen fruits have been prohibited in Karachi. The use of calcium carbide has been linked to the development of cancer.

The Sindh Food Authority has prohibited the use of calcium carbide chemicals in the preparation of fruits, according to information.

According to the Sindh Food Authority, boiling fruits in a short amount of time can be dangerous. To ripen the fruits, calcium carbide is utilized.

This gas is also absorbed in fruits during ripening, according to the Food Authority. Acetylene gas has been shown to affect the digestive tract in studies. Acetylene gas is toxic to the neurological system and causes liver damage.

He went on to say that fruits made of calcium carbide can cause cancer, that ripening agents made of ethylene should be used to cook the fruit, and that individuals who do not follow the guidelines will face legal action from the Food Authority.
