production has also been observed in fresh-cut apple and melon that had been dipped in an alginate-based edible coating if
compared to uncoated samples (Rojas-Graü et al., 2007; Raybaudi-Massilia et al., 2008).
Moreover, Lee et al. (2003) have shown that the application of whey protein concentrate decreased the CO2 production of apple slices to a greater extent than a carrageenan coating.
