Abstract

Indonesia as a tropical country has great potential in fruit cultivation, including tomatoes. Tomatoes are climacteric fruits that are easily subject to post-harvest quality decline due to their high water content. To extend the shelf life and maintain quality, one effort that can be made is the application of edible coating. Although edible coating can extend the shelf life of fruit, the addition of antimicrobial substances in the composition of edible coating has the potential to optimize the role of edible coating. Therefore, this study conducted a test related to the effect of edible coating with orange peel extract and VCO on the effectiveness of edible coating on tomatoes. The coating method used was the dipping method with variations of negative control, positive control, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5 treatments. The results of the edible coating composition test showed that the best variation of edible coating using VCO and orange peel extract was in the 1:5 variation with a shelf life of 21 days and the quality of the tomatoes well maintained during storage. Thus, edible coating based on orange peel extract and VCO is proven to be effective in maintaining tomato quality during storage and extending shelf life without reducing sensory quality. These findings indicate the potential for developing natural edible coating as an environmentally friendly alternative in post-harvest technology for tropical fruits such as tomatoes.
