“…During the ripening process of tomatoes, acids are replaced by sugar, developing a sweet taste in the fruit and thereby increasing the soluble solids. 39 Coatings slow down the consumption and synthesis of metabolites and suppress the production of ethylene during ripening, which minimizes fluctuations in TSS.…”

Plant-based composite edible coatings are a promising technique with high efficacy in extending the postharvest life of fruits. In this study, plant extracts of Sargassum crassifolium, Neolitsea cassia, and Aloe vera were blended in different combinations, and tested on fresh lime and tomato at ambient storage (27−32 °C and 70−75% RH). Coating properties were tested, and the best coating (25% of each plant extract) exhibited the lowest water solubility and potent antioxidant activity. A minimal postharvest weight loss for lime (27.23%) and tomato (21.58%) was reported after 21 days of storage, while the coating preserved a greener color in the outer peel of lime and tomato for an extended period, along with minimal chemical changes in fruit composition. Overall, an extended postharvest lifespan was reported for both coated lime (25 days) and tomato (29 days) compared to uncoated commodities (10 and 16 days, respectively).

“…Broc-Tom + KMnO4 Broc-Tom + KMnO4 + The selection of KMnO 4 , UV-C radiation, and TiO 2 was based on several factors. Firstly, according to sources in the literature [5,18,25,29], KMnO 4 was found to be more effective than 1-MCP for ethylene removal. Additionally, KMnO 4 is more practical for implementation in the food industry due to its affordability compared with palladium.…”

“…The simultaneous conservation of broccoli and tomatoes at the same temperatures can have different effects on the agri-food industry due to their distinct optimal storage requirements [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ]. Firstly, it is important to consider that broccoli is sensitive to ethylene, while tomatoes are ethylene producers [ 5 , 7 , 8 ]. When stored together, tomatoes can expedite the ripening process of broccoli due to ethylene release, leading to a reduction in broccoli’s shelf life.…”

“…There are natural actions that can mitigate the effects of ethylene. Firstly, the amount of ethylene produced by tomatoes can vary depending on their degree of ripeness [ 5 ]. Ripe tomatoes produce more ethylene than less ripe ones, so the impact of ethylene on broccoli may be reduced if stored with less ripe tomatoes.…”

This study introduces an effective solution to enhance the postharvest preservation of broccoli, a vegetable highly sensitive to ethylene, a hormone produced by climacteric fruits such as tomatoes. The proposed method involves a triple combination of ethylene elimination techniques: potassium permanganate (KMnO4) filters combined with ultraviolet radiation (UV-C) and titanium oxide (TiO2), along with a continuous airflow to facilitate contact between ethylene and these oxidizing agents. The effectiveness of this approach was evaluated using various analytical techniques, including measurements of weight, soluble solids content, total acidity, maturity index, color, chlorophyll, total phenolic compounds, and sensory analysis conducted by experts. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in the physicochemical quality of postharvest broccoli when treated with the complete system. Notably, broccoli subjected to this innovative method exhibited enhanced organoleptic quality, with heightened flavors and aromas associated with fresh green produce. The implementation of this novel technique holds great potential for the food industry as it reduces postharvest losses, extends the shelf life of broccoli, and ultimately enhances product quality while minimizing waste. The successful development and implementation of this new technique can significantly improve the sustainability of the food industry while ensuring the provision of high-quality food to consumers.
