| Summary, etc. | Abstract :The increasing demand for tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum) necessitates effective postharvest sanitation strategies to ensure safety, quality, and prolonged shelf life. This study designed and evaluated a tomato sanitation process using formulated disinfectants: chlorine, alkaline water, baking soda, and iodized salt. An experimental research design was employed to assess disinfectants against various microbial groups and their implications for shelf life. Post-treatment shelf life analysis revealed that untreated tomatoes spoiled fastest, while chlorine treatment had the slowest spoilage progression over 28 days. Environmental factors such as temperature and relative humidity significantly influenced spoilage, however, results on the determination coefficient (R2) indicate that these variables alone do not completely justify the variation in spoilage rates. Meanwhile, results for microbial testing indicated that while all tested disinfectants effectively controlled Salmonella sp., E. coli, and S. aureus, their influence on broader microbial groups like TPC and molds was not definitive. These findings highlight the importance of choosing suitable disinfectants and ensuring optimal storage conditions to reduce spoilage and microbial contamination in tomatoes. The study enhances postharvest handling practices, particularly for small- scale farmers and food processors, fostering safer and improved quality retention in tomatoes. |
