Use of Edible Coating Agents on Ready to Eat Fresh-Cut Pineapple
Abstract
Recently, fresh-cut vegetables and fruits are gaining popularity among consumers because consumer trends are more interested in fresh-cut products due to their convenience. In Thailand, fresh-cut fruits such as mango, watermelon, dragon fruit, cantaloupe, jackfruit and pineapple are popular for sale. Pineapple are one of the popular fruits that are exported both in the form of whole fruit and fresh-cut products. However, the problems of short shelf life, rapid quality changes and highly perishable fruits are always found due to the fresh-cut pineapple products are without peel or coating material. Therefore, they are easily dehydrated and unsuitably changed in appearances such as browning and soft texture. The edible coating agents was applied to fresh-cut pineapple to extend shelf life and maintain the freshness of the fresh-cut pineapple because edible coating agents has properties to control moisture and gas diffusion, improve the appearance of the product, control the number of microorganisms and maintain nutritional values. This article explains the use of different types and appropriate quantity of edible coating agents in fresh-cut pineapple product. The chemical, physical, microbial qualities and organoleptic characteristics of fresh-cut pineapples with and without edible film coating were also compared during storage.
