Effects of the exopolysaccharide from Porphyridium cruentum coating on polyphenol oxidase activity and colour of fresh-cut banana during cold storage

Fresh-cut fruits are highly susceptible to enzymatic browning. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) from the marine microalga Porphyridium cruentum on polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity and colour of ‘Cavendish’ banana slices during storage at 4°C.
