Effect of nanocellulose-based edible coatings enriched with α-pinene and myrtle essential oil on the postharvest quality of strawberry.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundDespite the desirable qualities of strawberries, their short shelf life and susceptibility to spoilage present significant challenges. This study examined the effect of nanocellulose-based edible coatings enriched with myrtle essential oil (MEO) and α-pinene (AL) at concentrations of 0.3% and 0.6%, on the quality attributes of strawberry fruits during an 18-day storage period at 4 °C. The physico-chemical, nutritional, and sensory attributes of strawberry were evaluated at 0, 6, 12, and 18 days of storage.
resultsResults demonstrated that treated samples displayed lesser weight loss and greater firmness than the control group during storage. Fruits treated with Nano-MEO 0.6% demonstrated minimum weight loss and maximum firmness (1.55 N). The maximum anthocyanin content was observed in the fruits treated with MEO 0.6 %, which was approximately 2.2 times greater than that of the control. Nano-AL 0.6% exhibited the highest ascorbic acid content (85 mg. 100 g
conclusionsIn general, compared with the control and other treatments, Nano-MEO (0.6%) demonstrated the greatest overall acceptability. Therefore, the use of this treatment is recommended for maintaining the quality of harvested strawberries.
