“…Furthermore, treated the fruits with essential oils (black cumin) led to reduce of weight loss and decay percentages, as well as the respiration rate of fruits (El-Sharony and Amin, 2014). Therefore, the aim of the present work is the possibility of using some safety compounds as natural postharvest treatments such as Measurements 1.…”

This experiment was carried out during two successive seasons (2012 and 2013) in the postharvest laboratory of Agricultural Development System (ADS) project in Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Egypt on two date palm fruits cvs. Zaghloul and Samany harvested at full coloured stage (khalal) to investigate the efficiency of using some natural substances i.e. arabic gum at 10%, black cumin (Nigella sativa) oil at 1% as well as their combination besides untreated fruits as a control under cold storage on fruit quality of date palm fruits. The obtained results showed that, 10 % arabic gum + 1% black cumin oil and 1% black cumin oil succeeded in reducing weight loss and fruit decay percentages for Zaghloul date palm, while arabic gum at 10% and 10% arabic gum + 1% black cumin oil gave the lowest weight loss and fruit decay percentages in Samany date palm. However, the highest values of fruit firmness were scored by 10% arabic gum + 1% black cumin oil and black cumin oil at 1% for both cultivars.Coating date palm fruits with combination of arabic gum 10% + black cumin oil 1% or arabic gum10% only enhance of fruit chemical properties (total soluble solids and total sugar) However, While, there was no clear trend for treatments effect on fruit total acidity content for both cultivars under the study.

“…These compounds serve a variety of ecological purposes, including luring pollinators and providing protection against harmful microorganisms [25][26][27]. Among the EOs studied so far, the antimicrobial activity of EOs from Rosmarinus officinalis L. (rosemary) [28,29]. Applying the plant with EOs allows controlling plant diseases and preserving fruits during postharvest.…”

“…The antifungal and antibacterial properties of plant essential oils vary depending on the plant species and applied oil concentrations [35,36]. Different concentrations of essential oils from various portions of oregano, thyme, lavendula, rosemary, and fennel plants were found to lessen tomato blight infection; the oils from the oregano and thyme plants were the most successful [28].…”

Due to the rising interest in healthy products, super foods such as pomegranate have spread widely on the international market in recent years. Several postharvest treatments have been applied in order to maintain the quality and extend shelf life of pomegranate arils. This study evaluated the effect of Arabic gum treatment as well as different edible coatings (Jojoba oil, Gelatin, Wheat Germ oil and Rosemary oil) on shelf life and fruit quality parameters of Wonderful pomegranate during cold storage at 5oC with 85-90% relative humidity for 45 days. Fruit characteristics, such as fruit weight, volume, firmness, and weight loss%, total juice weight and volume, total soluble solids, total acidity, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), total anthocyanin, total sugars % and total phenols were determined periodically along a storage period of 45 days. It is clear that, all fruit characteristics were positively affected by different edible coating treatments. Pomegranate fruits coated with rosemary oil at 2% in combination with Arabic gum at 10% effectively reduced weight loss%, maintained higher firmness, fruit weight, fruit volume, juice weight and juice volume.

Effectiveness of edible coatings such as Jojoba oil (JO) at 5%, Arabic gum (AG) at 10% and Paraffin oil (PA) at 7.5% as solely or in combination on physical and chemical characteristics of Zaghloul date palm fruits stored at 0±1°C and R.H. 85-90 % for 6 weeks were investigated during two successive seasons (2018 and 2019). The achieved data registered that all tested treatments prolonged the cold storage period of Zaghloul date palm fruits as compared to the control (Tap water). Fruits treated with JO at 5% combined with AG at 10% significantly recorded the highest responses, where it significantly mitigated the rise in decay incidence and reduced weight loss, and maintained high firmness, total phenol content, total flavonoids, total tannins, total sugars and antioxidant activity. Also, the result of ion leakage detected that this treatment protected the cell membrane integrity. According to these results, Jojoba oil (JO) at 5% combined with Arabic gum (AG) at 10% application could be suggested to maintain the storability during cold storage of Zaghloul date palm fruits.
