“…In addition, mangosteen fruit has a short shelf life after harvesting because of its high respiration rate and ethylene production (Setyadjit & Setyabudi, 2022). Moreover, fruit rot disease is another cause of direct yield loss during transport, distribution and retail (Khewkhom et al, 2013). Thus, the application of postharvest technology for solving these problems is necessary.…”

Methyl bromide fumigation aims to control insect infestation in mangosteen fruit before export which leads to reduce the fruit quality. Thus, the objective of this study was to control the quality of methyl bromide fumigated mangosteen using integrated postharvest technology. Fruit were prepared by fumigating with 32 g m-3 for 2 hours, washed with tap water, surfaced disinfestation with sodium hypochlorite. The prepared fruit samples were divided to treat with different methods as follows; 1) fruit were coated with ethanolic shellac-modified coconut oil (ES-MCO) and then packed in low density polyethylene (LDPE) bag containing ethylene inhibitor (1-MCP sachet), 2) fruit were coated with ES-MCO and packed in LDPE bag, 3) fruit were treated with ES-MCO and packed in nylon net bag, and 4) fruit were non-coated and packed in nylon net bag (control). All fruit samples were kept at 13ºC for 20 days (as the shipment stimulation) and then transferred to 25ºC for 2 days (as the shelf-life stimulation). The results revealed that after 15 days of storage fruit were treated with ES-MCO + LDPE bag + 1-MCP sachet showed the highest reduction of fruit rot disease and this treatment helped to delay the drying and browning of mangosteen calyx, chlorophyll degradation of the calyx, and reduce weight loss, the respiration rate and ethylene production. However after storage for 20 days, the pericarp of mangosteen in fruit treated with ES-MCO + LDPE bag + 1-MCP sachet became hard, and its shelf-life was 15 days.

“…Further, one of the significant post-harvest problems related to mangosteen is that it is easily susceptible to and is attacked by moulds such as Pestalotiopsis sp., Lasiodiplodia theobromae, Phomopsis sp., and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Khewkhom et al 2013). Contamination of mould occurs in mangosteens during plantation and post-harvest, and it can cause the fruit to be spoiled after harvest within 6 to 9 days (Lerslerwong et al 2013).…”

The effect of rubberwood sawdust containing orange oil was evaluated relative to the quality of mangosteens after harvest, transportation, and storage. Orange oil emulsion (500 µl L−1) was added to the rubberwood sawdust as an adsorber and inserted into sachets in different amounts (0 g, 70 g, 140 g, 210 g, and 280 g). Then, each sachet was packed into a corrugated paper box (about 35 L) containing 15 kg of mangosteens, transported for 3 days by truck, and stored at 30 ± 2 °C for nine days. Results showed that the sachet containing 210 g of orange oil absorbent was able to delay the ripening of mangosteens by two stages of the ripening scale and inhibit mould growth. In addition, the overall quality of the treated fruit was good, especially in terms of loss of weight and firmness. Orange oil vapour from the sachet had a high antioxidant capacity that affected the pigment of mangosteen by preventing the degradation of chlorophyll and carotenoids. D-limonene was the main factor that inhibited mycelium growth on the fruit. This finding indicates that rubberwood sawdust containing orange oil in a paper box can be used to improve the quality of mangosteens in the fruit market.
