A system for packaging and transporting produce is disclosed. The system includes a cup-shaped base having a bottom with side walls extending upward therefrom to a top rim, the bottom having an outer, substantially flat surface and an inner surface opposite the outer surface, and the inner surface and side walls forming an inner space. The system may further include within the inner space one of soil, an absorbent non-organic material or chlorinated water with additives. The system also includes a substantially dome-shaped top configured to rest upon and mate with the top rim. Methods and devices for packaging and transporting produce are also disclosed

A composition and method for treating lice and removing nits from human hair, the composition including an alcohol; an inorganic salt in an amount less than 10 wt %; one or more essential oils and/or plant essences; and purified water. The composition may optionally include a surfactant to reduce separation of the ingredients of the composition and increase the appearance of homogeneity within the composition. The method may include applying the composition to human hair and the scalp and combing the hair to remove the lice and nits.

Methods for inhibiting the growth of a microbe on a cut flower using compositions comprising a carboxylic acid of Formula (I) or salt thereof:

##STR00001##

wherein R is H, Ph, Ar, or a C.sub.1-C.sub.60 alkyl.

Cyclodextrin compositions, including a hydrophobic carrier and a cyclodextrin complex, are formed and disposed on a variety of substrates using conditions that avoid substantial loss of the complexed compound from the cyclodextrin complex, even where the complexed compound is a gas a common ambient temperatures (e.g. 20 C.). Flexographic printing is particularly useful for disposing the cyclodextrin compositions on one or more substrates. Substrates treated with the cyclodextrin complexes are useful for subsequent release of the complexed compound.
