American Journal of Biology and Life Sciences. Vol. 6, No. 1, 2018, pp Received: August 22, 2017; Accepted: November 23, 2017; Published: January 8, 2018 Abstract The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect of waxing and potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) on quality and shelflife of 'Kitchner' and 'Abu-Samaka' mango fruits. Waxing significantly delayed fruit ripening in both mango cultivars. Potassium permanganate in addition resulted in more delay in fruit ripening and better quality of the fruits. Waxing with 0.0, 1.0 and 2.0 g potassium permanganate, delayed fruit ripening in both cultivars by one, three and four days, respectively, compared with the control. Weight loss reduced by 29.1%, 38.1% and 46.0% in fruits packed in carton boxes with 0.0, 1.0 and 2.0 g potassium permanganate, respectively, compared with the control. Keywords Mango Fruits, Wax, Potassium Permanganate, Quality and Shelf-Life of Fruits 1. Introduction Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the most important tropical fruit of the world and is popular both in the fresh and the processed forms. It is famous for its excellent flavor, attractive fragrance, beautiful color, delicious taste and nutritional value. Mango plays an important role in balancing diet of human being by providing about calories energy per 100g of ripe fruit, and it is a good source of vital vitamins and minerals [5]. In Sudan mango is the second most important fruit crop, after banana, and it is commercially grown in every state. Its annual production is about 651 thousand tons and leading export fruit crop, representing about 60% of total exports of horticultural commodities in Sudan [6]. 'Abu-Gebeha' in Southern Kordofan is considered as one of the most important area in Sudan for producing low cost fruit crops, especially mango, guava and citruses, since they are produced under rain-fed conditions. Although more than 100 thousand tons of good quality mangoes are produced, only about 15% of the produce is marketed due to poor harvesting techniques, unsatisfactory handling practices and unadequate transportation and storage facilities [24]. Mangoes are usually harvested at the mature-green stage and transported to distant markets and ripened afterwards. During transit, they should remain green and firm. The shelflife of mangoes can be extended by transporting them under optimum conditions of temperature, relative humidity and composition of the atmosphere, and use of ripening retardants [16]. Waxing retards the rate of moisture loss, maintains turgidity and plumpness, and covers injuries on the surface of the commodity [29]. It significantly alters permeability of the skin to gases, the commodity, through respiration, is used to reduce oxygen and increase carbon dioxide and a modified atmospheric condition may be generated [16]. Coating of fruits with gum Arabic has been found to delay fruit ripening, maintain post-harvest quality and enhance their shelf-life in tomato [4] and banana [17]. Potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) is quite effective in reducing ethylene levels by oxidizing it to carbon dioxide and water. It is a chemical which has long been used to remove ethylene from the storage atmosphere [26]. It was demonstrated that KMnO 4 retarded the ripening of many fruits [29], [20]. The use of KMnO 4 in conjunction with
2 2 Mohamed M. Elzubeir et al.: Effect of Waxing and Potassium Permanganate on Quality and Shelf-Life of Mango Fruits modified atmosphere in polyethylene films delayed fruit ripening, maintained quality and extended shelf-life in mango [13] and banana [10]. It has been shown that bananas packed in polyethylene-lined boxes could be transported at higher ambient temperatures in the presence of KMnO 4 [16]. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of waxing and potassium permanganate on quality and shelf-life of 'Kitchner' and 'Abu-Samaka' mango fruits. 2. Materials and Methods 2.1. Experimental Material Two of the most important mango cultivars grown in Sudan: an early 'Kitchner' and late maturing 'Abu-Samaka' were selected for this study. Mature-green fruits were harvested from an orchard at Abu-Gebeha area in South-East Kordofan (11 o 27 N, 31 o 14 E), they picked by a hook attached to a long bamboo pole equipped with a long cloth bag held open by a ring. About 900 fruits of each cultivar were selected for uniformity size, color and freedom from blemishes, then washed with tap water to remove latex and dust, and then washed by distilled water, treated with 200 ppm sodium hypochlorite (Clorox, 5%) as disinfectant and air dried Fruit Treatment The fruits were distributed among the six treatments in a completely randomized design with four replicates. Potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) was used in a granular form and packed as one and two grams in small mesh bags. The treatments were: (1) fruits not treated with wax and Potassium permanganate (control), (2) fruits treated with wax, (3) fruits treated with 1 g KMnO 4 (4) fruits treated with 2 g KMnO 4 (5) fruits treated with wax with 1 g KMnO 4, and (6) fruits treated with wax with 2 g KMnO 4. All the boxes with fruits were stored at o C and 85-90% relative humidity Parameters Studied Respiration rate (RR), peel color (PC), weight loss (WL) percentage were determined daily during the storage period on 12 fruits from each replication. The total absorption method was used ([19] Mohamed-Nour and Abu-Goukh, 2010) and RR was expressed in mg CO 2 per kg-hr. The color score used was: mature green (=0), trace yellow on skin (=1), 20% yellow (=2), 40% yellow (=3), 60% yellow (=4), 80% yellow (=5), and 100% yellow (=6). WL percentage is calculated according to the formula: W 1 =[(W o - W t ) / W o ] x100%; where W1 is the percentage WL, W o is the initial weight of fruits at harvest and W t is the weight of fruits at the designated time. Flesh firmness (FF), total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA) and ascorbic acid (AA) were determined in three fruits picked randomly from each replicate, other than those used for previous parameters in 2- day intervals and later every day during the storage period. (FF) was measured by Magness and Taylor firmness tester (D. Ballauf Meg. Co.), equipped with an 8 mm-diameter plunger tip. Two reading were taken from opposite sides of each fruit after the peel was removed, and expressed in kilogram per square centimeter. TSS was measured directly from the fruit juice extracted by pressing the fruit pulp in a garlic press, using a Kruss hand refractometer (model HRN- 32). Two readings were taken from opposite sides of each fruit and the mean values were calculated and corrected according to the refractometer chart. Thirty grams of fruit pulp were homogenized in 100 ml of distilled water (oxalic acid for AA) for one minute in a Sanyo Solid State blender (model SM 228P) and centrifuged at rpm for 10 minutes using a Gallenkamp portable centrifuge (CF-400). The volume of supernatant, which constituted the pulp extract, was determined (was topped to 250 ml oxalic acid for AA). (TA) was measured according to the method described by [23] and expressed as percent citric acid. (AA) was determined by using the 2,6-dichloro-phenolindophenol titration method of [25] and expressed in mg per 100g fresh weight Statistical Analysis Analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Fisher ' s protected LSD test with a significance level of P 0.05 were performed on the data ([12]. 3. Results and Discussions The use of wax significantly delayed fruit ripening, maintained quality and extend shelf-life of mango fruits of both cultivars. The use of KMnO 4 in conjunction with wax further retarded fruit ripening. The delay in fruit ripening and extension of shelf-life of mango fruits due to wax and KMnO 4 were reflected in changes in respiration rate, weight loss, peel color, flesh firmness, total soluble solids, titratable acidity and ascorbic acid content Effect on Respiration Rate (RR) The respiration curves of the two mango cultivars exhibited a typical climacteric pattern. The untreated fruits reached the climacteric peak after 8 and 10 days in 'Kitchner' and 'Abu-Samaka' cultivars, respectively. Mango fruits treated with wax without KMnO 4 reached the climacteric peak one day later in 'Kitchner' and 'Abu-Samaka' mango fruits, compared with untreated fruits (Figure 1 and 2). Wax, with one and two grams KMnO 4 delayed the onset of the climacteric peak of respiration by three and four days, respectively, in both cultivars. These results agree with previous reports in banana [1], [10], apricot [21] and papaya [9]. Wax resulted in a modified atmosphere (MA) with lower O 2 and higher CO 2 concentrations. MA has been shown to decrease RR and delay the onset of the climacteric peak in mango [13] and banana [1], [20]. The use of KMnO 4 in conjunction with MA was found to delay the onset of the climacteric peak [10]. The addition of KMnO 4 decreases RR and delays ripening by maintaining ethylene at a low level

This could be due to delay in the fruit ripening in the presence of KMnO 4 as described earlier. Since ripening was delayed in the presence of KMnO 4 tissue permeability would be decreased and reduction in WL in the fruits would be obvious. Figure 1. Changes in respiration rate of 'Kitchner' mango fruits treated with wax (o), treated with 1 g KMnO 4 and wax ( ) or with 2 g KMnO 4 and wax ( ) compared with control fruits without wax and KMnO 4 ( ), during storage at 18 ± 1 C and 85% 90% relative humidity.

Figure 2. Changes in respiration rate of 'Abu-Samaka', mango fruits treated 3.2. Effect on Weight Loss (WL) WL progressively increased with storage of mango fruits. Significantly lower percentages of WL were observed in the fruits treated with wax (Figure 3 and 4). The fruits, treated with wax without KMnO 4, reached the highest WL percentage of 20.86% in 'Kitchner' and 15.75% in 'Abu- Samaka' cultivar. Fruits treated with wax with 0.0, 1.0 g or 2.0 g KMnO 4 reduced the WL by an average of 29.1%, 38.1% and 46.0%, respectively, compared with the control fruits. Similar results were reported in banana [20], mango [28], grapefruit [22] and papaya [27]. The use of KMnO 4 in conjunction with wax resulted in more reduction of WL from Figure 4. Changes in weight loss of 'Abu-Samaka', mango fruits treated with wax (o), treated with 1 g KMnO 4 and wax ( ) or with 2 g KMnO 4 and wax ( ) compared with control fruits without wax and KMnO 4 ( ), during storage at 18 ± 1 C and 85% 90% relative humidity 3.3. Effect of Peel Color (PC) PC score continuously increased during storage of the two mango cultivars. The untreated fruits reached the full yellow stage (color score 6) after 11 days in 'Kitchner' and 14 days in 'Abu-Samaka' cultivars (Figure 5 and 6). The fruits treated with wax with 0.0, 1.0 g and 2.0 g KMnO 4 reached the full yellow stage after one, three and four days in both cultivars, respectively, compared with control fruits. Wax resulted in a MA with lower O 2 concentration, which suppresses ethylene biosynthesis, and higher CO 2, which inhibit ethylene action [14]. KMnO 4 in conjunction with wax further reduces ethylene levels by oxidizing it to CO 2 and water [16]. These conditions are conductive to delay fruit ripening and hence resulted in longer green-life of the fruits.

Figure 7. Changes in fruit flesh firmness of 'Kitchner'. mango fruits treated Figure 6. Changes in peel color score of 'Abu-Samaka', mango fruits treated 3.4. Effect of Fruit Flesh Firmness (FF) FF decreased steadily during storage of both mango cultivars (Figure 7 and 8). The control fruits treated with wax without KMnO 4 reached the final soft stage (0.15 kg/cm 2 ) after 13 and 16 days in 'Kitchner' and 'Abu-Samaka' cultivars, respectively. The wax delayed the drop in FF during storage. The fruits treated with wax with 0.0, 1.0 g and 2.0 g KMnO 4 reached the final soft stage after one, three and four days later, compared with the control fruits. These results agree with the finding of [11], [20] and [10]. It has been shown that KMnO 4 combined with wax was more effective in delaying fruit flesh softening in avocado [15], mango [8] and banana [10]. Figure 8. Changes in fruit flesh firmness of 'Abu-Samaka', mango fruits ( ), during 3.5. Effect on Total Soluble Solids (TSS) During storage period, TSS progressively increased in both mango cultivars. The maximum TSS value reached by the fruits treated with wax without KMnO 4 was 20.0% in 'Kitchner' and 18.5% in 'Abu-Samaka' after 11 and 13 days, respectively, (Figure 9 and 10). TSS in fruits treated with wax with 0.0, 1.0 g and 2.0 g KMnO 4 was reduced by an average of 1.9%, 4.7% and 7.0% compared to control fruits. The maximum TSS values reached by mango fruits treated with wax with 0.0, 1.0g and 2.0 g KMnO 4 was delayed by one, three and four days, respectively, compared with the control fruits. This is in agreement with previous reports in mangoes [13], banana [11] and [10].

Changes in titratable acidity of 'Kitchner' mango fruits treated Figure 10. Changes in total soluble solids of 'Abu-Samaka,' mango fruits ( ), during 3.6. Effect on Titratable Acidity (TA) TA progressively decreased during storage in all fruits (Figure 11 and 12). It decreased in the control fruits from 2.67% in 'Kitchner' and 3.11% in 'Abu-Samaka' to 0.2% after 12 days and 15 days in the two cultivars, respectively. This is in agreement with the finding of [3]. Wax and KMnO 4 treatment significantly delayed the drop in TA during storage in both cultivars. The fruits treated with wax with 0.0, 1.0 g and 2.0 g KMnO 4 reached the minimum TA (0.2%) after one, three and four days, respectively, compared with control fruits packed unlined and without KMnO 4. Wax and ethylene absorbents delay fruit ripening [16], [10] and hence the drop in TA during fruit ripening [18]. Figure 12. Changes in titratable acidity 'Abu-Samaka', mango fruits treated 3.7. Effect on Ascorbic Acid Content (AA) AA content sharply decreased during storage of both mango cultivars (Figure 13 and 14). In the control fruits, it decreased from 39.9 to 15.0 mg/100g fr. wt. after 12 days and 37.6% of the initial amount was retained. This is in agreement with previous reports [2], [3]. The minimum value of AA content of 15.0 mg/100g fr. wt. reached after 12 days in control fruits, was delayed by one, three and four days in fruits treated with wax with 0.0, 1.0 and 2.0 g KMnO 4, respectively, compared with control fruits. AA was significantly higher in the fruits treated with wax with or without KMnO 4, compared with control fruits. The amount of AA retained after 12 days in storage was 39.8%, 44.2% and 46.3% of the initial values in fruits treated with wax without KMnO 4, with 1.0 and 2.0 g KMnO 4, compared to 37.6% in the control fruits. MA packaging resulted in better maintenance of AA in broccoli [7].

Conclusion Treating of both mango cultivar with wax alone significantly delayed fruit ripening, maintained quality and extend shelf-life. The use of both wax and KMnO 4 together further retarded fruit ripening that is they have a synergistic effect. The delay in fruit ripening and extension of shelf-life of mango fruits due to wax and KMnO 4 were reflected in changes in respiration rate, weight loss, peel color, flesh firmness, total soluble solids, titratable acidity and ascorbic acid content.
