Implication

This observational analysis shows how pectin coatings improve firmness and microbiological quality in strawberries, suggesting benefits for fruit preservation.

Key Points

GDL-enriched coatings reduced spoilage to 14.29% after 9 days versus 57.14% in controls.
Extract content increased from 9.92 to 12.00 °Brix in GDL-coated strawberries.
Pectin coatings slowed firmness loss while limiting changes in pH and color attributes.
Principal Component Analysis confirmed that coating type significantly differentiates sample quality over time.
