Carboxymethyl cellulose coating delays chilling injury development and maintains eating quality of 'Kinnow' mandarin fruits during low temperature storage

Sajid Ali et al.

Summary: The use of CMC coating was found to effectively reduce chilling injury symptoms, disease incidence, fresh weight loss, and chemical contents in 'Kinnow' mandarins during cold storage, while also enhancing enzyme activities, total soluble solids, and antioxidant properties compared to uncoated fruits. Overall, CMC coating showed promise in maintaining quality and reducing postharvest losses in harvested 'Kinnow' mandarin fruits.

Potentials of Medicinal Plant Extracts as an Alternative to Synthetic Chemicals in Postharvest Protection and Preservation of Horticultural Crops: A Review

Kwanele Andy Nxumalo et al.

Summary: Horticultural crops often face physiological disorders and decay during storage, mainly caused by postharvest pathogens. While synthetic fungicides have been effective, there is a growing preference for natural alternatives like medicinal plant extracts due to health and safety concerns. These extracts have phytochemicals and antioxidants that can control postharvest pathogens and extend the shelf life of horticultural crops.
