Effects of edible films on the postharvest life of mangoes.

Mango cv. Haden fruits were coated with various fatty acid solutions then stored under marketing conditions (20 deg C). The solutions were: 2% fatty acids + 1% carbohydrates; 1% fatty acids + 0.5% carbohydrates; 1.5% fatty acids + 1% carbohydrates; and 2% fatty acids + 1% carbohydrates + 0.1% calcium caseinate. Untreated fruits reached their climacteric peak during the first 5 days, while treated fruits reached their climacteric later. No differences in weight loss, pulp colour development, total soluble solids accumulation and acidity loss were found. However, firmness loss after 15 days was less in treated fruits and their appearance was better. Fruits coated in 2% fatty acids + 1% carbohydrates + 0.1% calcium caseinate retained a fresh appearance for the longest time.
