Effects of edible coatings and storage on quality of cherries cv. "Burlat".

Author(s) : ROJAS C., RÍO M. A. del

Summary

Cherries cv. "Burlat" were coated with various edible coatings and stored at 1 °C and 90% relative humidity for 21 days plus 1 day at 20 °C and 85% relative humidity. Periodically physico-chemical and sensory parameters were evaluated. Weight loss was reduced in coated fruits. Application of shellac-based edible coatings and commercial edible coating significantly increased ethanol concentrations in fruits. Shellac-based coatings provided the lowest flavour scores. The carnauba-based and emulsified with oleic acid edible coatings provided firmer fruits and the lowest deterioration rate.
