Popis: Coatings based on plant by-products can contribute to the enhancement of raw material by preparing value-added products. In addition, the extension of shelf-life of eggs contributes to the reduction of food losses and decreases the use of refrigeration, energy demand, production costs, and consequently avoid the increase in the price of the final product. The rice protein concentrate (RPC) and plus Brazilian green propolis (GP), were used in the manufacture of coatings used to extend the shelf-life of eggs during storage for 6 ​wk at 20 ​°C. In this regard, some quality parameters of eggs were analyzed in this research. The coatings based on RPC and GP delayed the loss of internal egg quality, since avoided moisture loss through the pores of the eggshell. The weight loss increased (P ​
