Title: Recent Advances in Novel Packaging Technologies for Guava Fruits to Extend Shelf-Life and Preserve Health Benefits for Longer

Abstract: The fruit of the guava (Psidium guajava L.), which is also referred to as the “apple of the tropics,” is widely grown throughout tropical regions of the world. The guava fruit’s inherent nutritional value, pleasant aroma, superb flavor, and delectable taste have recently increased its significance. It is regarded as a top nutrient and phytochemical source. Guavas are climacteric fruits, meaning they continue to develop or ripen even after harvest. This rapid senescence or spoilage of fruit is caused by an increase in the rate of respiration and metabolic activities within a short period of time. Due to its short shelf life after harvest and susceptibility to diseases and chilling damage during the storage period, it has limitations in terms of commercialization. In order to delay the chilling injury and improve the keeping quality of guava fruits during the storage period, a variety of postharvest technologies have been used, including edible packaging, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), composite packaging, controlled atmosphere packaging (CAP), antimicrobial/antifungal packaging, and nano packaging. These technologies aim to regulate respiration rate, minimize lipid oxidation, and maintain organoleptic properties. However, the internal and external quality attributes of guava fruits are affected differently by these packaging technologies. The physiology, ripening mechanism, oxidation, and ethylene production of guava fruits are therefore covered in this review. The review also covers packaging innovations and how they affect guava fruit postharvest characteristics during storage.
