Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect EO-coating combined with high-CO2 MAP significantly reduced decay of strawberries by up to 70% at day 16.
- Intervention effect The combined EO-coating and high-CO2 MAP treatments maintained firmness (2.17 N versus 1.63 N for the control).
- Intervention effect The combined treatments limited weight loss to under 4% versus over 8% in the control.
- Observation Quercetin and ferulic acid showed relative stability under all storage conditions.
- Observation Anthocyanins (malvidin) and free phenolic acids (caffeic and gallic acids) were more prone to degradation.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that CO2-enriched MAP with EO-based coatings is a promising technique to extend strawberry shelf life, reduce postharvest losses and preserve nutritional and commercial quality.
