Abstract
In this study, the methylcellulose edible coating additives, namely, salicylic acid (SA) (1–2.5 mM), canola oil (0.05–0.1%) and tween-80 (0.05–0.1%) were optimized using RSM to improve quality management of pomegranate arils. The central composite design was used, and the response variables included mass loss (ML), total soluble solids (TSS), total phenolic content (TPC) and 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH scavenging activity). The results showed that ML was affected by the quadratic terms of canola oil, tween-80 and SA, whereas TSS was affected by the quadratic terms of canola oil and tween-80. The interaction of SA and canola oil showed a significant effect on TSS and TPC, whereas DPPH scavenging activity was affected by linear terms of SA and canola oil. The optimized conditions for the independent variables were 1.55 mM, 0.079% and 0.079% for SA, canola oil and tween-80, respectively. The predicted responses were consistent with experimental values, indicating the model accuracy and suitability.
