Antifungal hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)-lipid composite edible coatings and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) to reduce postharvest decay and improve storability of ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranates
Pomegranate exhibits important postharvest quality losses that limit its storage potential, caused mainly by weight loss, chilling injury and fungal diseases. In this work, we evaluated the effect of novel hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) edible coatings (ECs) formulated with three different...

| description | Pomegranate exhibits important postharvest quality losses that limit its storage potential,
caused mainly by weight loss, chilling injury and fungal diseases. In this work, we evaluated
the effect of novel hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) edible coatings (ECs) formulated
with three different lipids (beeswax (BW), carnauba wax, and glycerol monostearate), as
hydrophobic components, and two different GRAS salts (potassium bicarbonate (PBC) and
sodium benzoate (SB)), as antifungal ingredients, to control weight loss and natural fungal
decay of ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranates during storage at 20 °C. Afterwards, selected
antifungal ECs and commercial modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) films were assayed
alone or in combination to control natural decay and preserve fruit quality of pomegranates
stored at 5 °C for 4 months plus 1 week at 20 °C. Results showed that ECs amended with SB
reduced pomegranate latent infections caused by Botrytis cinerea and wound diseases caused
by Penicillium spp. Moreover, MAP technologies were confirmed as an efficient mean to
preserve freshness, prevent fruit shriveling and rind browning, and reduce fungal decay, thus
extending storage life of pomegranates. The combination HPMC-BW-SB + MAP was the most
promising treatment as it reduced weight loss and decay, without negatively affecting the fruit
physicochemical and sensory quality. |
