Coatings with chitosan and aloe vera significantly reduced weight loss and decay in mangoes under ambient storage conditions.
At storage end, treated mangoes exhibited improved firmness, ascorbic acid levels, and total phenol content compared to controls.
An observational analysis on mangoes stored at 27±2°C indicates enhanced antioxidant activity with natural coatings.
These results point toward the potential for using biodegradable coatings in mango postharvest management to sustain bioactive components.
