  1. Effectiveness of edible coatings to inhibit browning and inactivate foodborne pathogens on fresh‐cut apples

    • Journal of Food Safety

    • Fresh‐cut apples were dip‐coated in antimicrobial/antibrowning solutions. The developed solutions had the dual effectiveness of both controlling browning and reducing pathogenic bacterial populations, which maintained the fresh‐like appearance and texture of apple slices for 35 days and reduced populations of Salmonella to undetectable levels (<1 log) without growth throughout the storage at 4°C.
