From waste to shelf life: Olive pomace extract as a natural preservative for mangoes

The escalating challenge of agricultural and industrial waste, exemplified by olive pomace (OP), presents a unique opportunity to recover valuable bioactive compounds. This study pioneers a sustainable solution by transforming OP extract (OPE) into a potent natural preservative for mangoes. Our fin...

description The escalating challenge of agricultural and industrial waste, exemplified by olive pomace (OP), presents a unique opportunity to recover valuable bioactive compounds. This study pioneers a sustainable solution by transforming OP extract (OPE) into a potent natural preservative for mangoes. Our findings reveal that OPE exhibits exceptional antioxidant prowess (92% DPPH scavenging) and robust antimicrobial activity against foodborne pathogens. To translate these properties, we developed Arabic gum (AG) coatings enriched with OPE and applied them to mangoes. Over a 45-day storage period, these bio-integrated coatings significantly preserved fruit quality by retarding ripening, minimizing weight loss, and inhibiting decay. Furthermore, OPE not only fortified the antioxidant defence system of the mangoes but also demonstrated anti-inflammatory potential by suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α) in the fruit rinds. This research underscores the compelling utility of OPE as a natural, multifunctional agent for enhancing mango shelf life, nutritional value, and potentially offering added health benefits. Future investigations will delve into the precise mechanisms of action and optimize OPE-based formulations for wider applications across diverse fruits and vegetables.
