Banana is a highly perishable fruit with short shelf-life. Lack of proper preservation practices results in considerable amount of post-harvest loss of banana in Bangladesh. To minimize this post-harvest loss and extend the shelf-life of mature bananas (green colour) were treated with 0.5%, 0.75% and 1% chitosan coating and stored at room temperature (28±2ºC). The viability of the coating in extending the fruits shelf-life was assessed by evaluating total weight loss, ash content, total soluble solids ( ̊Brix), pH, titratable acidity (%), disease severity and shelf-life during the storage period. Chitosan coating Reduced respiration activity, thus slow ripening and the rate of decay reduces due to senescence. The chitosan-coated banana ...
