Application of Chitosan for the Removal of Metals From Wastewaters by Adsorption—Mechanisms and Models Review (2007, background): “49 A major application in the food/health care products area includes the development and extremely rapidly growing market to incorporate chitosan as a significant ingredient in weight loss products or fat reducers.”
Mango - Postharvest Biology and Biotechnology (2013, background): “The plastic film also acts as a barrier to minimise water loss from the fruit (Yuen et al., 1993; Macnish et al., 1997; Pesis et al., 2000; Singh and Janes, 2001; Illeperuma and Jayasuriya, 2002; Srinivasa et al., 2002; Castro et al., 2005).”
Chitosan as a potential natural compound to control pre and postharvest diseases of horticultural commodities (2006, background): “…than the control while, in the second study, mango fruit were dipped in a chitosan solution, and these fruit had lower reducing sugars than control fruit (Kittur et al., 2001; Srinivasa et al., 2002), indicating a higher reduction of the fruit metabolism in the dipped than in the nondipped fruit.”
Effect of harvesting and storage conditions on the post harvest quality and shelf life of mango (Mangifera indica L.) fruit (2012, background): “…decrease in acidity was attributed towards the conversion of citric acid into sugars and their further haunsa mango fruit, measured at harvest time. utilization in metabolic process of the fruit (Doreyappy-Gowda and Huddar, 2001; Mizrach et al., 1997; Rathore et al., 2007; Srinivasa et al., 2002).”
Advances in Edible Coatings for Fresh Fruits and Vegetables: A Review (2013, background): “Chitosan-based composite coating formulations (Kittur et al., 2001) as well as films (Srinivasa et al., 2002) have been shown to prolong the shelf life of banana, mango, and capsicum.”
Physico-chemical characterization of chitosan-based edible films incorporating bioactive compounds of different molecular weight (2011, background): “In addition, chitosan is an excellent edible film component due to its film-forming capacity and good mechanical properties and can form transparent films, which may find application in a variety of packaging needs (Srinivasa et al., 2002).”
