Abstract
Mango is a perishable fruit and difficult for long-term storage.In this paper,sodium alginate was used for coating mango and Vitamin C content,total sugar content,weight loss and decay index of coated mango were detected.Result showed that the sodium alginate coating could prolong the storage time of fresh mango and the best concentration of sodium alginate coating was 2.0%.The Vc content,total sugar content,total weight loss rate and decay index of the coated mango were 740mg/kg,108 g/kg,8.59%,and 32%,respectively.
