Two experiments were carried out, one under refrigeration (Experiment I), with 21 days at 10 °C and 42% RH and then seven days at 25 °C and 42% RH, and another at room temperature, at 23 °C and 42% RH (Ex­periment II) for ten days. Both experiments were set up in a completely randomized design, whose treatments consisted of the doses of 0%, 1%, 2%, 3% and 4% <em>Chlorella</em> sp. An increase above 2% in the contraction of <em>Chlorella</em> sp. causes delay in ripening. The best physicochemical indications for maintenance of ’Tommy Atkins’ mango quality were observed in fruits that received the coating of 1% <em>Chlorella</em> sp., reflecting good appearance, fresh mass loss of less than 5.5% and total sugars above 12%, under both storage conditions.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Científica}, author={Forte de Oliveira, Agda Malany and Carlos Rocha, Railene Hérica and Guedes, Wellinghton Alves and de Sousa Furtunato, Tádria Cristiane and de Lima, José Franciraldo}, year={2018}, month={mar.}, pages={08–16} }
