Also, pre-cooling facilitates the good temperature management
for prevention of ripening and that the on set of
senescence is effectively delayed by maintaining low
product temperature helps in reducing water loss and
subsequent, product shriveling when combine its with
packaging (Kaynas and Sivritepe 1995).
Therefore the present investigation was conducted to
determine the effect of pre-cooling, in combination with the
use natural extracts as fruit coating and different packages
to enhance the storage quality of apple cv. ‘Royal
Delicious’ under ambient storage.
