How can be the thickness of coating on fresh whole fruits and vegetables be determined?
You can use Motic image software. Is is very professional for anatomical studies.
The precise determination of the thickness of the coating is dependent on the type of product and the coating material used, but in general, for this, you first need to carefully examine the results of the research, similar to your own test, to obtain a range of proportions corresponding to the thickness of the coatings, and To increase accuracy, design a similar test and use the results for the original treatment.
Good luck.
Low vacuum SEM or optical imaging of the cross-section would help to measure the thickness.
Also, there are many hand-held instrument to measure the average thickness.
Good luck

I agree with above. You must provide a cross section, then impaint according methods. Take some picture with microscope. Finally, measure the thickness of the fruit cuticles.
