This study evaluated the effects of edible coating with fish pro-tein hydrolysate on the quality and shelf life of cherry tomatoes. The cherry tomatoes were divided into four treatments: Control; coated with glycerol (5%; w/v); coated with glycerol (5%; w/v) and added with protein hydrolysate (1%; w/v) and coated with glycerol (5%; w/v) and added with protein hydrolysate (2%; w/v). The coated or uncoated cherry tomatoes were evaluated at 0, 7, 14, 21, and 45 days of chilled or room temperature storage for color, weight loss, firmness, soluble solids, pH, and molds and yeasts. The microbiological data suggested the edible coating with protein hydrolysate has bioactivity because inhibited the proliferation of molds and yeasts. However, in the other analyses showed no superior shelf life compared to the control. aFood technology1 aLIMA, K. O.1 aBUENO, C. H. L.1 aFOGACA, F.
