Development and characterization of a nanomultilayer coating of pectin and chitosan - Evaluation of its gas barrier properties and application on 'Tommy Atkins' mangoes

► Development/characterization of nanomultilayer coatings made of food-grade materials. ► Nanomultilayer coatings obtained by layer-by-layer deposition of pectin and chitosan. ► Nanomultilayer coatings reduced gas flow and extended the shelf-life of mangoes.
