Abstarct: Persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) is one of the most important Iranian horticultur fruit. But the short of storage life and post-harvest losses are the basie problems of fruit. The study in effect of packaging films and Brasenbill essential coating containing oliv oil and was studied on persimmon longevity in the horticulture laboratory of Shahrood University of technology. investigate a factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with 3 factory including packing films in three levels (no application of polyethylene film of 0.08 μm and PVC), edible coating treatment and storage time (8 sampling with Intervals of 7 days)with 3 replication. The qualititiative and quantitative traits including weightloss, firmness, titrable acidity, pH, TSS, soluble protein, and enzymatic activity of catalase and peroxidas were evaluated. Application of packaging films reduced the weight loss of fruits. Also, the use of polyethylene films of 0.08 micrometres and PVC maintained the firmness of fruit and total soluble solids and acidity as weil. The results of the experiments showed that the combination of PVC film with Brasenbill essential oil had the best effect on maintaining the qualityand of fruit during storage, including traits such as fruit firmness, total soluble solids, fruit weight. The catalase and polyphenol oxidase activity increased with the passage of time. The PPO activity in coated fruit was lower than the control fruits. As a result, the combination of PVC film with the brassenbill essential oil can be described as an appropriate treatment combination.
