Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality. [PDF]

J Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Antioxidant Activity, Phytochemical Characterization, and In Vitro Antitumor Effects of Foam-Mat Dried Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Pulp. [PDF]

J Food Sci
ABSTRACT This study investigated the antioxidant, antiproliferative, and antitumor effects of dried mango pulp (DMP) on human colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco‐2) and human osteosarcoma (MG63) cell lines. The mango pulp was dehydrated using the foam‐mat drying method, and its bioactive compounds were identified by HPLC, UHPLC–MS, and the Folin–Ciocalteu ...

Biological Active Ecuadorian Mango 'Tommy Atkins' Ingredients-An Opportunity to Reduce Agrowaste. [PDF]

Nutrients, 2018
Mango is a commercially important tropical fruit. During its processing, peel and seed kernel are discarded as waste but they could be recovered as an excellent and cost-effective source of health-promoting ingredients. This study aimed to characterize some of them, including carotenoids like the provitamin A β-carotene and lutein, with an interest ...
