Popis: | Edible coatings (ECs) based on chitosan (CH), pullulan (PU), linseed (LM), nopal cactus (NM) and aloe mucilage (AM) were applied by layer-by-layer technique to preserve the quality and prolong the shelf-life of fresh-cut pineapple. Pineapples were washed, disinfected, dried and cut into 2 cm side cubes. Fresh-cut fruit was coated by dipping using four treatments (CH + PU, CH + LM, CH + NM and CH + AM), packed into polyethylene terephthalate containers and stored for 18 d at 4 °C. Uncoated fruit was used as control. Application of layer-by-layer ECs decreased (P 0.05). Microbiological analyses demonstrated the effectiveness (P |
