C. aPreservation of quality and bioactive compounds in mangoes using chitosan-graphene-oxide-based biodegradable packaging.h[electronic resource] c2023 aMango is a climacteric fruit that requires efficient postharvest technologies to maintain quality during storage and transportation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of biodegradable packaging from chitosan (CS) incorporated with graphene oxide (GO) on the quality, bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of cold-stored ?Tommy Atkins? mangoes. Mangoes harvested at physiological maturity were stored without packaging or in CS, CS-GO or non-biodegradable polyethylene (PE) packaging at 12.0 ◦C and 89% relative humidity for 42 days. The results show that GO improved the water barrier and mechanical properties of CS packaging. All packaging delayed fruit ripening by reducing the respiration rate, mass loss, softening and changes in color, soluble solids, titratable acidity and beta-carotene content, also preserving the mangoes? visual appearance. In addition, all packaging maintained higher ascorbic acid, yellow flavonoid, phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity levels in the fruit, compared to non-packed ones. Chitosan packaging is a promising, eco-friendly alternative for the preservation of quality, bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of cold-stored ?Tommy Atkins? mangoes, extending their postharvest life by at least 14 days. aBiopolymers aCarotenoids aMangoes aNanoparticles aPackaging aPhenolic compounds aPostharvest physiology aPostharvest technology aPostharvest treatment aShelf life aArmazenamento aCarotenóide aComposto Fenólico aEmbalagem aManga aMangifera Indica aPós-Colheita aAmadurecimento de frutos aBiopolímeros aCompostos bioativos em mangas aEmbalagem de quitosana aEmbalagens biodegradáveis aNanopartículas aÓxido de grafeno aÓxido quitosana aQualidade pós-colheita aSubstâncias biodegradáveis aTommy Atkins1 aFREITAS, S.
