“…The lower weight loss in the treated samples could be attributed to the ability of the coatings to form a barrier to water diffusion between the environment and the arils, thus limiting moisture loss and delaying tissue senescence [ 45 ]. This notion was reported by Hasheminejad and Khodaiyan [ 46 ], who observed decreased weight loss in arils that were treated with clove essential oil + chitosan and stored at 5 °C for 54 d. The results in this study are in agreement with the weight loss magnitude that was recorded in pomegranate arils that were coated with starch + glycerol or starch + glycerol + oil ( N. sativa ) [ 43 , 47 ]. Although the application of coatings on arils maintained weight loss either below or within the acceptable limit for minimally processed fruit for the storage period of 15 d [ 48 ]; AV that was combined with CO was more effective than that of AV that was combined with RO in delaying weight loss.…”

“…Coating with 10% AV + 0.25% CO was the most effective in maintaining the TSS. Pomegranate arils that were coated with starch + glycerol or starch + glycerol + oil (600 ppm seed oil of N. sativa ) [ 43 ] or AV + oil (600 ppm seed oil of N. sativa ) [ 47 ] also supported the present results.…”

“…It confirmed that incorporating essential oil in AV was an effective way to maintain the TA. A similar observation was also noted in pomegranate arils that were coated with starch + glycerol or starch + glycerol + oil (600 ppm seed oil of N. sativa ) [ 43 ] or AV + oil (600 ppm seed oil of N. sativa ) [ 47 ]. Moreover, Zarbakhsh et al [ 40 ] also obtained similar results for treated arils under 5 °C storage for 15 d, supporting the present study.…”

“…These observations correspond to the TSS values that were recorded for cv. ‘Bhagwa’ pomegranate arils that were coated with 40% and 50% AV gel [ 47 ]. This positive effect was due to the oil’s barrier properties against the diffusion of water between the storage environment and the product, thus preventing the change in TSS [ 45 ].…”

A completely randomized design was applied on pomegranate arils for several post-harvest treatments before the packaging in polypropylene boxes for 15 days at (5 ± 1 °C, 95 ± 2% RH): control (untreated), Aloe vera gel (10% or 20%), 10% Aloe vera + rosehip oil (0.25% or 0.50%), 20% Aloe vera + rosehip oil (0.25% or 0.50%), 10% Aloe vera + cinnamon oil (0.25% or 0.50%), and 20% Aloe vera + cinnamon oil (0.25% or 0.50%). Aloe vera in combination with cinnamon oil resulted in an enhanced shelf life (15 d) compared to the uncoated arils (control). The Aloe vera + cinnamon oil coating led to the retention of total phenolics, anthocyanin, ascorbic acid, and antioxidant activity in context to the quality attributes. Moreover, this coating showed minimal change in the color, total soluble solids, titratable acidity, firmness, delayed ethylene production, respiration rate, and physiological weight loss. Also, A. vera + cinnamon oil coatings significantly (p < 0.05) inhibited the total counts of mesophilic aerobics, coliforms, and yeast and mold. Organoleptic attributes, including color, flavor, aroma, texture, and purchase acceptability were higher for the arils that were treated with 10% A. vera + 0.25% cinnamon oil; thus, this highly economical and easily available coating material can be formulated and used commercially to extend the shelf life and enhance the profit of the producers and/or processors.

“…central nervous system [ 7 ]. On the other hand, propolis [ 8 , 9 ] and black seed oil [ 10 ], are reported to positively influence postharvest life in other fruits, but have not been tested in pomegranates. Therefore, the aim of the present work was to study the effects of propolis, black seed oil and fludioxonil with and without modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the postharvest quality of pomegranate cv.…”

Effects of fludioxonil, propolis and black seed oil application on the postharvest quality of “Wonderful” pomegranate

2018

Pomegranate fruit consumption has increased rapidly throughout the world, mainly because of its medical and nutritive attributes. Thus, considerable commercial and scientific interest exists in prolonging its postharvest life with non-chemical applications as much as possible to meet the year-round demand for this fruit. The present work aimed to study the effects of black seed oil (0.1% and 0.5%), propolis (0.01% and 0.1%) and fludioxonil (0.06%), with and without modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), on the postharvest quality of pomegranate cv. Wonderful. Treated fruits were stored at 6.5±1 °C and 90–95% relative humidity for 150 days. The results indicated that both black seed oil and propolis treatments significantly influenced the maintenance of fruit weight and quality. At 150 days after storage, the fruit weight loss of the samples treated with MAP + 0.5% black seed oil, MAP + 0.1% propolis and MAP alone were found to be 5.5%, 6.3%, and 9.1%, respectively, whereas the weight loss of the untreated control fruits was 19.8%. Application of either 0.5% black seed oil or 0.1% propolis, especially when combined with MAP, was also effective in controlling gray mold development and slowing the occurrence of chilling injury.
