Popis: | Mango is a tropical fruit which is one of major export commodities of Indonesia. During the distribution and storage, mango is potentially susceptible to both physical and biological deterioration. In this study, a coating method is applied to reduce quality loss of mango. Mango was coated by conventional carrageenan coating in combination with ZnO nanoparticles (0, 0.5, and 1% by weight of carrageenan) as filler. The results revealed that the elongation parameter of the carrageenan/ZnO nanoparticles (CZ) nanocomposite film are not significantly increase compared to that of carrageenan film, while the tensile strength increased and water vapor transmission rate decreased significantly. The incorporation of ZnO nanoparticles transformed the ordinary carrageenan coating to have antimicrobial properties against Escherichia coli as well. Finally, these qualities exhibited by the CZ 1 coatings could maintain the shelf life of fresh whole fruit of mango. |
