Effect of Shrimp Chitosan Coating on Physico-chemical Properties and Shelf Life Extension of Banana

Banana is a highly perishable fruit with short shelf-life. Lack of proper preservation practices results in considerable amount of post-harvest loss of banana in Bangladesh. To minimize this post-harvest loss and extend the shelf-life of mature bananas (green colour) were treated with 0.5%, 0.75% an...
