It is small, brown and hard, almost wooden-like and unappetising; but this young orange, an insignificant-looking ball of pith at this stage in the fruit's life, with no oils, no flesh and no pips , is the basis of a science that is revolutionising not one, but a collection of industries.

The
core biotechnology of Citrox is the use of complex compounds which have been
developed by a team of scientists.
The
key ingredients are flavonoids that are extracted through a specialised process
from citrus fruits. The extracted bioflavonoids are combined with a number of
natural acids (from fruit and vegetable origins) to produce the core active
substances which have a proven broad spectrum efficacy against harmful
micro-organisms, fungi and parasites.
More
recently other Botanical extracts have been successfully evaluated which now
gives a huge potential for application in anti-viral and anti-parasitic
activity.
ProGarda™ decontaminant range has been specifically formulated for the decontamination of fruits and vegetables. These
products are viable alternatives to the use of chlorine (or other compounds or systems) for
decontaminating fresh fruits and vegetables.
