Development and optimization of a biological coating process based on chitosan from edible cricket to control Aspergillus niger-decay and weight loss of the Algerian dates cv. Deglet Nour
This study aims at reducing the post-harvest Aspergillus niger decay incidence of date palm through the biological coating process. To determine the most effective process, chitosan extracted from edible cricket (Schistocerca gregaria) combined with Arabic gum, Aloe vera gel or carboxymethyl cellulose was screened in comparison with the chemical fungicide Benomyl®. Similarly to the Benomyl®, coating dates with chitosan combined with Arabic gum significantly reduced the decay incidence (10 %) compared to untreated dates (100 %) and the weight losses were decreased from 6.02 % to 3.36 %. Coating dates with chitosan added to Arabic gum was selected for optimization using the Plackett-Burman and response surface methodologies approach. Acetic acid, gum Arabic and chitosan quantities were found to be the significant factors influencing the efficiency of the coating bioprocess. The optimized coating bioprocess was experimentally confirmed for the stored dates at 4 °C for 30 days and showed a complete elimination of A. niger decay incidence. The enhanced biological coating process based on chitosan added to gum can be proposed as a promising sustainable solution to reduce the abusive uses of chemical fungicides in Deglet Nour dates and to cut down weight losses during storage.
期刊介绍:
Process Biochemistry is an application-orientated research journal devoted to reporting advances with originality and novelty, in the science and technology of the processes involving bioactive molecules and living organisms. These processes concern the production of useful metabolites or materials, or the removal of toxic compounds using tools and methods of current biology and engineering. Its main areas of interest include novel bioprocesses and enabling technologies (such as nanobiotechnology, tissue engineering, directed evolution, metabolic engineering, systems biology, and synthetic biology) applicable in food (nutraceutical), healthcare (medical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic), energy (biofuels), environmental, and biorefinery industries and their underlying biological and engineering principles.
