Fresh-cut Mango Coated with Mango Film in Modified Atmosphere Packaging
Mango (cv. Namdok Mai) puree has a potential to form a good oxygen barrier film.Therefore. Mango film might be useful to extend shelf-life of fresh-cut mango (cv. Namdok Mai).Samples of fresh-cut mango(15x25x15 mm) were wrapped with mango films(0.174 mm of thickness) and packed in cellophane bags (modified atmosphere packaging) containing gaseous mixtures (85% N2, O2, 10% CO2).Each of packages was stored at 30ºC or 5ºC and using sensory evaluation to determine the shelf-life.Shelf-life of uncoated or coated with mango film of fresh-cut mangoes at 30ºC and 5ºC were 4, 5, 6 and 6 days, respectively.For coated fresh-cut mango, higher temperature had a greater firmness, less oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations during storage time.However, temperature did not affect on firmness and both gas concentrations of uncoated fresh-cut mango.
