Resumen
Active packaging including encapsulated essential oils (EOs) may highly increase the shelf life of horticultural products due to the higher antimicrobial activity of EOs in the vapour phase through a controlled release from the packaging. In that sense, the aim of the present study was to study the effects of an active packaging (a cardboard box including a βcyclodextrin (βCD) inclusion complex with an EOs mix) on the quality of bell peppers (green, red and yellow) during storage at 8 °C (90 % relative humidity) up to 18 d. The EO mix (carvacrol:oregano:cinnamon 70:10:20 v:v:v) was efficiently encapsulated within the βCD inclusion complex by 94 %. Green, red and yellow peppers packaged within the active box showed 1–2 lower log units of enterobacteria than the control (without the active coating) after 11–18 d. Furthermore, green/red and yellow peppers showed lower mould counts (approximately 1 log unit) than control samples at days 6 and 11, respectively. The decay incidence of samples ...
