Data revealed all packaging materials in combination with gelatin recorded high score of visual quality along the storage period, after 18 days at 5 ± 1 °C compared with the control. Coating arils in alginate at 3% with Packing in silver nano bag was the effective MPA bags in maintaining taste, aroma and overall acceptability. Also, it recorded the higher value of anthocyanin, vitamin C and antioxidant activity whereas decreased pectinase activity. On the other hand, coating arils in alginate at 3% with packing in Xtend bag (XT) was prefer ablein maintained brightness score and produced lower loss in weight % and oxygen levels inside the package. It could be concluded that coating arils of Wonderful pomegranate in alginate solution 3% then stored in silver nano bag (SN) technology was more effective method to extend storage life of fresh cut pomegranate aril during cold storage.
