Chitosan Coating Effect on Storability and Quality of Fresh Strawberries
Abstract
The effect of chitosan coating (1.0 and 1.5% w/v) in controlling decay of strawberries at 13°C was investigated as compared to a fungicide, iprodione (Rovral®). Chitosan coating significantly reduced decay of berries (P ≤ 0.05) compared to the control. There was no significant difference between chitosan and fungicide treatments up to 21 days storage. Thereafter, Rovral®‐treated berries decayed at a higher rate than chitosan‐coated berries. Chitosan‐coated berries stored at 4°C were firmer, higher in titratable acidity, and synthesized anthocyanin at a slower rate than Rovral®‐treated or nontreated berries. Chitosan coating decreased respiration rate of the berries with a greater effect at higher concentration.

Chitosan produces a film on treated fruit surface that reduces gas exchange and respiration, slowing down ripening and keeping fruit less susceptible to decay.
“On the other hand, chitosan produces a film on the treated fruit surface that reduce gas exchange and respiration (El Ghaouth et al., 1991; Romanazzi et al., 2009), then slowing down ripening and keeping the fruit less susceptible to decay.”

In most studies, overall fruit quality was not negatively affected by chitosan application.
“In general, in most of the studies, overall fruit quality was not negatively affected by chitosan application (El Ghaouth et al., 1991; Devlieghere et al., 2004; Feliziani et al., 2015).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
