Effect of chitosan/nano-silica coating on the physicochemical characteristics of longan fruit under ambient temperature

•Influence of chitosan/nano-silica hybrid film on extending storage life of longan fruit at ambient temperature.•With decreasing browning index and weight loss and retarding some enzyme activities.•With inhibiting the decreases of total soluble solids, titratable acidity and ascorbic acid.•The chito...
