Edible coatings for fresh-cut fruits.
The production of fresh-cut fruits is increasingly becoming an important task as consumers are more aware of the importance of healthy eating habits, and have less time for food preparation. A fresh-cut fruit is a fruit that has been physically altered from its original state (trimmed, peeled, washed and/or cut), but remains in a fresh state. Unfortunately since fruits have living tissue, they ...
متن کاملAntifungal Edible Coatings for Fresh Citrus Fruit: A Review
According to their origin, major postharvest losses of citrus fruit are caused by weight loss, fungal diseases, physiological disorders, and quarantine pests. Cold storage and postharvest treatments with conventional chemical fungicides, synthetic waxes, or combinations of them are commonly used to minimize postharvest losses. However, the repeated application of these treatments has led to imp...
متن کاملFunctional polysaccharides as edible coatings for cheese.
The objective of the present study was to apply the polysaccharides from different nontraditional sources for cheese coatings. Chitosan, galactomannan from Gleditsia triacanthos, and agar from Glacilaria birdiae were tested, with different formulations and with the addition of plasticizer and corn oil. The surface properties of the cheese and the wetting capacity of the coatings on the cheese w...
متن کاملEvaluation of Edible Coatings in Fresh Cuts Mango Fruits
The potential benefits of edible films or coatings are to stabilize the product and thereby extend it shelf life. Edible films can delay ripening of climacteric fruit, delay colour changes in non-climacteric fruit, reduce water loss, reduce decay, and improve appearance. The aim of this work was to evaluate the use of edible coatings to preserve the quality of fresh cut mango fruits storage und...
متن کاملNanosystems in Edible Coatings: A Novel Strategy for Food Preservation
Currently, nanotechnology represents an important tool and an efficient option for extending the shelf life of foods. Reducing particle size to nanometric scale gives materials distinct and improved properties compared to larger systems. For food applications, this technology allows the incorporation of hydrophilic and lipophilic substances with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties that can...
