“…Bioactive compounds added into the edible coating are the non‐nutritive components that are extracted either from plants, animals, microorganisms, or marine organisms (Chen et al., 2021; Quirós‐Sauceda et al., 2014). The bioactive substances used in coating of tomatoes are mainly polyphenols (Andrijanto et al., 2020), organic acids (citric, ascorbic, acetic acid, benzoic acid) (Ambarsari et al., 2018; Jin & Gurtler, 2012), bacteroicins (nisin, netamycin) (Yang et al., 2019), ethanolic and aqueous extracts of plant parts (Kumar & Neeraj, 2019; Ruiz‐Martínez et al., 2020; Taher et al., 2020), and EOs extracted from plants sources (Peralta‐Ruiz et al., 2020; Tzortzakis et al., 2019). The incorporation of natural active ingredients, such as plant extracts and EOs in edible coatings, is an emerging trend for shelf‐life extension of tomato.…”
