"In order to minimize the postharvest losses and extend shelf life in Mango, postharvest treatments are given to the fruit after harvest. Among the postharvest treatments, hot water treatment is the one and should be applied at the beginning of the packing or packing process for improved quality and shelf life of mango. Mango anthracnose, a major postharvest disease, induces huge losses in mangoes and threatens mango export and consumption. [Obsa Neme Angasu, Olyad Gudissa Dessalgne and Tigist Nardos Tadesse, 2014. Effect of Hot Water Treatment on Quality and Incidence of Postharvest Disease of Mango (Mangifera indicia L.) Fruits. Asian Journal of Plant Sciences, 13: 87-92." https://scialert.net/fulltext/?doi=ajps.2014.87.92 |

"Hot Water Rinsing and Brushing is commercially applied to several fruits and vegetables in order to reduce decay development and maintain fruit quality after subsequent prolonged storage and shelf-life (Fallik, 2010). This technology cleans and disinfects the freshly harvested produce at a relatively high temperature of 45-62°C, with the produce passing over revolving brushes for a very short time of 15-25 s (Fallik, 2010)" |

"Irradiation : Growing public demand for chemical residue-free fruit is leading to increased development of alternative technologies, such as heat and irradiation. Gamma (γ) irradiation kills microorganisms and insects by damaging their DNA, but does not alter the nutritional value of food (Ferrier, 2010) and can even be used to extend the shelf life of fresh produce (Farkas et al., 2014)." https://www.researchgate.net/publication/323347747_Post-harvest_storage_management_of_mango_fruit) |
