Storage Behavior of “Seddik” Mango Fruit Coated with CMC and Guar Gum-Based Silver Nanoparticles

Mango fruit (cv. Seddik) is known as a delicate for storage after harvest. Herein, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and guar gum-based silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were used coatings, their effects on postharvest behavior quality attributes investigated. AgNPs synthesized using chemical reduction approach then combined with CMC gum coating bases. fruits coated the developed pre-characterized CMC-AgNPs gum-AgNPs, packed stored at 13 °C 4 weeks. The results showed an increase in weight loss, respiration rate, total soluble solids (TSS), sugars, carotenoids over period. However, this was comparatively less significant compared to uncoated fruits. Firmness titratable acidity (TA) significantly decreased during storage, but decrease Silver traces pulp samples not detected. These findings efficacy of CMC-AgNP gum-AgNP coatings delaying mango ripening maintaining cold storage. Therefore, these could be promising alternative materials extending life marketing period fruit.
