Metody ošetření čerstvého ovoce a zeleniny na bázi ochranných povrchových aplikací
Bůšek, Filip
This bachelor's thesis elaborates an overview of protective surface applications on fresh fruits and vegetables based on biocompatible polymers, which can be abbreviated as edible coatings, which can be made of polysaccharides, proteins or lipids, or a combination of several materials, referred to as composite coatings. It also deals with the method of their application to the surface of food, where the basic ones include dipping, spraying and brushing. The properties of edible coatings can be improved by incorporating active substances such as antimicrobial agents, texture improvers or nutraceuticals. The next part of the work summarizes the positives, but also the shortcomings of edible coatings and some materials applied to individual types of food. The final part deals with current research and perspectives in the field of edible coatings.
