Alginate hydrogel is broadly known for its potential as an encapsulation agent due to its compatibility and versatility. Despite its predominance, alginate hydrogel naturally has macropores and a less rigid structure, which leads to syneresis and uncontrolled diffusion of bioactive compounds from the gel network. Combining alginate with other biopolymers has been considered to improve its properties as an encapsulation agent.

Fresh ginger can spoil quickly owing to a variety of factors, including inappropriate postharvest handling, microbial and enzymatic activities, and chemical reactions during storage. This study evaluated the physicochemical properties of ginger coated with chitosan and beeswax during storage for 6 months at different temperatures (18°C and 25°C). Fresh ginger was treated with chitosan coating (1.
