Article Description

The shelf life of mushrooms is limited, which prevents distribution and marketing as a fresh product. The aim of present research is to coat Agaricus bisporus mushroom by chia seed mucilage containing encapsulated essential oils for Ferula gummosa Boiss. (FG) and Ziziphora clinopodioides Lam. (ZC) with 100 and 500 ppm concentrations in order to extend during 16 days. The results for technological assays illustrated that coatings including FG and ZC essential oils at 500 ppm level caused to reduction in respiration rate, lose weight, browning degree and microbial population and also enhanced firmness feature, total phenol, antioxidant attributes and vitamin C compared to control during shelf life. Microscopy analysis confirmed that formation of a uniform structure was observed. Overall, results suggest that a coating chia seed mucilage containing encapsulated essential oils for FG and ZC can be a promising approach and suitable factor to prolong shelf life of perishable mushroom.
