The present research aimed to develop an edible coating incorporated with mint essential oil, evaluate its effectiveness in inhibiting in vitro microbial development, and improve both quality and shelf-life of fresh-cut pineapple. Mint essential oil-containing edible coatings showed in vitro antimicrobial efficiency against Escherichia coli and Salmonella Enteritidis. Titratable acidity, pH, and texture were not affected (P>0.05) by coating or storage time. Mass loss was not higher than 1.0% after the 6th day of storage. No effect of storage time and coating on total soluble solids was observed. Mint essential oil-containing coatings inhibited the growth of yeasts and molds in fresh-cut pineapple. Compared to uncoated and control-coated samples, mint... |

Strawberry is a small fruit considered one of the most appreciated berries by the Brazilian population, for its pleasant flavour and source of vitamin C. However, it is a highly perishable fruit due to postharvest pathological problems, mainly caused by Botrytis cinerea fungus. To decrease this problem, edible coatings can be an alternative because are considered an environmentally friendly technology, used to preserve and extend the postharvest shelf life. The aim of this study was to evaluate two edible coatings: the sodium alginate and carboxymethyl cellulose to keep quality and extend shelf life of strawberries. The produced coat was obtained from the spreading of film-forming solution on glass petri dishes and dried for 48 h in a vacuum oven to study... |

Abstract Fish consumption has increased in recent years. However, fish meat is highly perishable, which demonstrates the need for technologies to preserve its quality. Edible coatings (EC) might provide an alternative to extend the shelf life of fish. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of EC of chitosan (C) in combination with carvacrol (CAR) on the physical and microbiological changes of tilapia fillets. Fillets were submerged for two minutes in different treatments (T1: control; T2: C 2%; T3: C 2% + 0.125% CAR; T 4: C 2% + 0.25% CAR). At the end of storage, T1 and T2 showed the lowest values of total volatile bases (TVB). The color parameters L*, a* and b* varied from each treatment. The texture decreased and the different treatments... |
