摘要

In the present study, the Tapioca starch (2% w/v) based nano-coatings were developed with incorporation of essential oil compositions (50:50 ratio) and ultrasonication treatment (30 min). The orange peel essential oil was blend with the different essential oils (clove, rosemary, basil, oregano, cinnamon, lavenders, tea tree, and thyme) and incorporated in coating formulations for postharvest applications on Khasi mandarins. The results showed that, all the coating formulations maintained their nano size range between 206.9 ± 4.51 nm to 656.5 ± 3.47 nm and zeta potential ranged between − 20.8 ± 1.1 mV to -9.7 ± 0.9 mV on 85 days. The significantly (p < 0.05) higher particle size (3564 ± 6.51 nm) and a lower value of zeta potential (-3.6 ± 0.4 mV) were found in CF0 coating formulation (control-1). The shelf-life study result showed that the application of starch-based nano formulations was significantly effective to maintain the postharvest characteristics of fruits throughout the storage period up to 30 days. The control samples were not acceptable after 20 days and showed significantly (p < 0.05) higher weight loss (g), TSS, and respiration rate with higher maturity index on 30 days of storage. The sample treated with CF3 and CF8 coating formulations showed significantly lower weight loss in primary (32.15 g and 33.33 g) and secondary storage (29.27 g and 28.82 g), with higher TSS, lower acidity, higher respiration and maturity index, lower phenolic and antioxidant activity. Interestingly, CF3 and CF8 nano-coating were found to be the most effective treatments to maintain the higher postharvest quality attributes of Khasi mandarins during primary storage combined with secondary packaging.
