Customized development of 3D printed anthocyanin-phycocyanin polychromatic oral film via chondroitin sulfate homeostasis: A platform based on starch and κ-carrageenan. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 330:121817.

Abstract
The development of oral film with diverse colors and customized nutrition is in line with the innovation of emerging food. In this study, polychromatic system was formed by regulating the ratio of phycocyanin (PC) to blueberry anthocyanin (BA). Further, chondroitin sulfate (CS) was utilized to achieve color-enhanced and homeostatic effects on PC-BA, and κ-carrageenan (KC) - starch complex was exploited as printing ink to construct oral film system. The color-enhanced effect of CS is mainly related to the complexation of sulfate groups, and the film-forming substrates are combined mainly through hydrogen bonding. In addition, the proportion of KC modulated the gel structure of printing ink, and affected 3D printability and physical properties of oral film. OF II (1.5 % KC content) had a uniform and dense network structure, with the most stable color and the highest BA retention (70.33 %) after 8 d of light exposure. Importantly, OF II had an excellent slow-release effect, and BA release rate was as high as 92.52 %. The optimized components can form polychromatic oral film with controllable color and structure, and provide new insights for the creation of sensory personalized and nutritionally customized food.

Abstract
Multifunctional packaging films that monitor and maintain fish freshness hold significant potential for use in the food industry. This study introduces a multifunctional intelligent packaging film comprising alizarin (ALI)-embedded cubic γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (γ-CD-MOFs) (denoted as γ-CD-MOFs@ALI) in a methylcellulose/polyvinyl alcohol (MP)-based matrix to achieve colorimetric monitoring and enhanced preservation of fish freshness. The MP/γ-CD-MOFs@ALI reveals a rapid color transition in 3 min from yellow color progressively darkens to purple as the pH increases from 2.0 to 10.0. And it is proved that the as-prepared film owns high antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus), impressive ABTS+ radical scavenging rates of 85.54 ± 1.25 %, and effective ALI sustained-release properties. The intelligent packaging film exhibits an excellent colorimetric response to total volatile basic nitrogen and provides exceptional freshness preservation performance, effectively prolonging the shelf life of Ctenopharyngodon idella (grass carp) under 25 °C to 42 h.

Development of a chitosan and whey protein-based, biodegradable, colorimetric/fluorescent dual-channel monitoring label for real-time sensing of shrimp freshness. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 262:130203. [PMID: 38365147 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/13/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024]
Abstract
To address the growing and urgent need for quick and accurate food spoilage detection systems as well as to reduce food resource wastage, recent research has focused on intelligent bio-labels using pH indicators. Accordingly, we developed a dual-channel intelligent label with colorimetric and fluorescent capabilities using black lycium anthocyanin (BLA) and 9,10-bis(2,2-dipyridylvinyl) anthracene (DSA4P) as colorimetric and fluorescent indicators within a composite film consisting of chitosan (Cs), whey protein (Wp), and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP). The addition of STPP as a cross-linking agent significantly improved the hydrophobicity, mechanical properties, and thermal stability of the Cs/Wp composite films under low pH conditions. After the incorporation of BLA and DSA4P, the resulting dual-channel intelligent label (Cs/Wp/STPP/BLA/DSA4P) exhibited superior hydrophobicity, as indicated by a water contact angle of 78.03°. Additionally, it displayed enhanced mechanical properties, with a tensile strength (TS) of 3.04 MPa and an elongation at break (EAB) of 81.07 %, while maintaining a low transmittance of 28.48 % at 600 nm. After 25 days of burial in soil, the label was significantly degraded, which showcases its eco-friendly nature. Moreover, the label could visually detect color changes indicating volatile ammonia concentrations (25-25,000 ppm). The color of the label in daylight gradually shifted from brick-red to light-red, brownish-yellow, and finally light-green as the ammonia concentration increased. Correspondingly, its fluorescence transitioned from no fluorescence to green fluorescence with increasing ammonia concentration, gradually intensifying under 365-nm UV light. Furthermore, the label effectively monitored the freshness of shrimp stored at temperatures of 4 °C, 25 °C, and - 18 °C. Thus, the label developed in this study exhibits significant potential for enhancing food safety monitoring.

Abstract
pH-responsive intelligent films for food freshness monitoring have attracted great attentions recently. In this study, several intelligent films based on chitosan (CS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and grape skin anthocyanin (GSA) were prepared, and the effect of film-forming solution pH on the properties of intelligent films was investigated. The results of SEM, FTIR, XRD and TGA displayed that the hydrogen bond between CS and GSA was strong at strong acidic conditions (2.0-2.5), and it weakened at weak acidic conditions (3.0-4.5). Meanwhile, the hydrogen bond between PVA and GSA was negligible under strong acidic conditions, and it appeared under weak acidic conditions. Consequently, the films fabricated under weak acidic conditions displayed lower water solubility, lower water vapor permeability, and higher elongation at break. The tensile strength of films increased firstly and subsequently decreased with pH increasing, reaching a maximum value of 31.44 MPa at pH 3.5. Additionally, the films prepared at pH 2.5 and 4.0 showed the best color responsiveness to ammonia and acetic acid, respectively. Overall, the intelligent films prepared under variant pH have the potential to realize the goal of monitoring the freshness of different types of food, thereby expanding the application subject of anthocyanins-based intelligent films.

Abstract
Food bioactive packaging has received increasing attention from consumers and the food industry for its potential to reduce food waste and environmental issues. Several materials can be used to produce edible films/coats; however, bio-based, cost-effective, and sustainable coatings have gained a high reputation these days. For instance, Aloe vera gel (AV) is a promising bio-based material for edible coatings and films; therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the film-forming abilities of AV and Chitosan (CH) combination as a potential active food packaging material. The physicochemical and mechanical characteristics of formed films of various combinations were prepared at different concentrations, i.e., CH (0.5% w/v), AV (100%), CH:AV (75:25), and CH:AV (60:40). The results showed significant differences among all the prepared edible films wherein these differences were mainly on account of incorporating AV gel. The rheological and antioxidant properties of the formulations improved with the inclusion of AV gel. The films composed of CH:AV (60:40) positively affected the water solubility, thermal properties, and water vapour permeability of the edible films. The X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results showed that the films composed of CH:AV, (60:40) were amorphous and had smooth morphology. Further, the edible film solutions were applied to fresh figs (Ficus carica) to investigate their role in preserving fruits during storage. A significant reduction in microbial growth was found in coated fruits after 28 days of cold storage. The films composed of CH and AV showed overall improved results compared to the CH (0.5%, w/v). Therefore, the used formulations (CH:AV, 60:40) can form a sustainable film that has the potential to be utilized for fresh product preservation to maintain its quality and shelf life.

Abstract
Oral film is a novel functional carrier, which can provide a new pathway for the efficient absorption of anthocyanin. However, anthocyanin homeostasis in oral film is a prerequisite for achieving efficient absorption and utilization of anthocyanin. Herein, three sulfated polysaccharides, including chondroitin sulfate (CS), fucoidin (FU) and λ-carrageenan (λ-CG), were complexed with blueberry anthocyanin (BA) to prepare oral film formulations using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as a film-forming matrix. The addition of three sulfated polysaccharides improved the stability of BA in content and color, which were associated with interactions between BA and polysaccharides. The BA retention rate of CS-BA/HPMC system increased 5.5-fold after 8 d of light-accelerated storage compared with the control group, showing the best homeostasis effect. CS and λ-CG enhanced the elongation at break and prolonged disintegration time of oral films. The addition of FU made the oral film denser and smoother, and had the highest BA release (75.72 %) in the simulated oral cavity system. In addition, the oral films of three sulfated polysaccharides complexed with BA showed superior antioxidant capacity. The present study provides new insights into the application of anthocyanin in film formulation carriers.

Abstract
A two-step method for preparing smart labels that can monitor food freshness through color change is presented. The conventional casting method for such labels is not cost-effective, as it uses organic solvents and requires additional cutting processes. Our method is more eco-friendly and customizable, as it uses water as the sole solvent and 3D printing as the fabrication technique. First, curcumin was encapsulated with soy protein isolate (SPI) by a pH-driven method involving hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Subsequently, the SPI-curcumin complex was blended with gelatin to create a printable ink. The ink has suitable rheological properties for extrusion, with a yield stress of 400-600 Pa and a viscosity of 122.93-142.82 Pa·s at the optimal printing temperature. The complex modulus of the ink increases to above 2 × 103 Pa when cooled to 25 °C, indicating rapid gel formation. The application of these smart labels to minced meat demonstrated their ability to reflect its freshness by transitioning from yellow to red. Furthermore, the printability and mechanical properties of the labels can be adjusted by changing the glycerol/water ratio. This innovative approach is a promising solution for producing environmentally friendly and customizable smart labels for food freshness monitoring.

Abstract
The full combination of high sensitivity indication and long-lasting bacteriostatic function is an innovative need to meet the practicality of intelligent film packaging systems for food products. Hence, Blueberry anthocyanins (BA) copigmentated by ferulic acid (FA) was used as an indicator, and cinnamon essential oil (CO) encapsulated by β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) as a bacteriostat, potato starch (PS) as a film-forming substrate to prepared a dual-function starch-based intelligent active packaging film with pH indicator and antibacterial function. FA had the best copigmentation effect with a threefold increase in a value compared to other phenolic acids. The ΔE value increased from 3.24 to 5.13 at pH 2-8, and the change was still prominent in acid-base alternating test, indicating a high response sensitivity. Notably, the yellow gamut of indicating terminus increased its visibility to the naked eye. The release behavior of CO from film was in line with Fick's diffusion. Meanwhile, the release of CO delayed to about 90 h through β-cyclodextrin encapsulation, showing a high growth-inhibition rate in E. coli and S. aureus of almost 100 %. In this study, a dual-function film with indication and bacteriostasis was prepared and enhanced with both, expanding its wide application in intelligent packaging of fresh food.

Novel pH-responsive indicator films based on bromothymol blue-anchored chitin for shrimp freshness monitoring. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127052. [PMID: 37748590 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/27/2023]
Abstract
The cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) based pH-sensitive indicator films were developed by mixing guar gum (GG) with bromothymol blue-anchored chitin (BTB-Chitin) as an indicator to monitor shrimp freshness. The BTB-Chitin was prepared by grafting hydroxypropyltriethylamine groups (HPTA) to chitin first, then anchoring bromothymol blue (BTB) to prepare intelligent pH response BTB-Chitin. The 0.08 BTB-Chitin films had a good tensile strength of 11.76 MPa and the water contact angle values were 125°, which displayed obvious color response to pH buffers and acid base volatile gas. Besides, the homogeneous and flexible composite films showed good color stability and reversibility. The released amount of BTB was very low from the BTB-Chitin films in heptane and corn oil. The composite films had been degraded completely in 15 days in soil. The pH and volatile base nitrogen were measured to determine the degree decay of shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), and the prepared pH-sensitive films changed from yellow (fresh) to cyan (spoiled) with the freshness of shrimp decreased, indicating the BTB-Chitin films could detect the shrimp freshness in real-time and high visibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study developed an intelligent, pH-sensitive and amine-responsive colorimetric label based on chitosan, whey protein and thymol blue by controlling the pH value of the film-forming solution. The obtained label was used to monitor shrimp freshness in real time. The results of this study offer a new approach for developing highly intelligent biogenic labels for freshness monitoring during seafood preservation and processing. RESULTS The pH 2.0 chitosan-whey protein-thymol blue (CWT-pH 2.0) label exhibited remarkable properties, including the highest tensile strength (5.90 MPa), excellent thermal stability, low water solubility (27.80%) and highly sensitive color responsiveness. The characterization techniques of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the effective immobilization of thymol blue within the film-forming matrix through hydrogen bonding. Furthermore, the CWT-pH 2.0 label demonstrated visible color changes in the presence of volatile ammonia concentrations ranging from 25 to 25 000 ppm. Consequently, the label successfully facilitated real-time monitoring of shrimp freshness during storage at 4 °C. Importantly, the release rate of thymol blue from the label in food simulants was minimal, measuring only 2.53%. CONCLUSION The CWT-pH 2.0 label exhibits significant potential as a highly intelligent biogenic label for freshness monitoring in seafood preservation and processing. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The development of a healthier and more sustainable food supply is a main concern of consumers, industry, governments, and international institutions. Foods containing high levels of rapidly digestible starches have been linked to a rise in the number of people suffering from diet-related chronic diseases. Consequently, there is interest in reducing the digestibility of starch to improve their healthiness. The ability of natural additives including proteins, dietary fibers, and polyphenols, and sustainable processing technologies such as high-intensity ultrasonic, pulsed electric field, non-thermal plasma, γ-ray irradiation that regulate reduce starch digestibility in foods are reviewed. The potential mechanisms of action, advantages, and disadvantages of each approach at inhibiting starch digestibility is highlighted. The potential for commercializing these technologies is discussed, and areas where further research are required are emphasized. Natural additives and sustainable processing operations can effectively reduce the digestibility of starch and inhibit postprandial sugar "spikes" in the bloodstream by adjusting the structural changes, which can be used to create healthier and more sustainable foods and have broad application prospects.

Abstract
Here, highly sensitive blueberry anthocyanin (BBA)-induced intelligent indicating films were fabricated by incorporating a novel composite ingredient, diatomite (DA), into a matrix of konjac glucomannan (KGM), carrageenan (CAR) and BBA. We systematically investigated the effects of introducing DA and BBA on the structure, physical properties, colorimetric response, and practical application of the KGM/CAR film. Our findings revealed that the DA particles and BBA were well-distributed in the KGM/CAR matrix through hydrogen bonding interactions. This distribution significantly improved tensile strength, surface hydrophobicity, thermal stability, and barrier properties of the KGM/CAR film. Notably, the KGM/CAR-based intelligent film loaded with 6 % DA exhibited the most optimal properties. Furthermore, DA exhibited a hierarchical porous structure, enabling the KGM/CAR film to detect volatile amines with heightened sensitivity. When applied to monitor shrimp spoilage in transparent plastic packaging, the color of the composite film underwent remarkable changes from bright pink to bluish violet. These color changes correlated well with the total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) and pH changes in the shrimp, as determined by standard laboratory procedures. Our work presents a promising approach to the development of high-performance and intelligent food packaging materials. These materials hold great potential for practical applications in the field of food packaging.

Abstract
An intelligent indicator was developed by immobilizing bromocresol green (BCG) within the polyacrylamide (PAAm) hydrogel matrix to monitor the total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) content of fish. The FTIR analysis indicated that BCG was effectively incorporated into the PAAm through the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. A thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the PAAm/BCG indicator had a mere 0.0074% acrylamide monomer residue, meanwhile, the addition of BCG improved the thermal stability of the indicator. In vapor tests with various concentrations of trimethylamine, the indicator performed similarly at both 4 °C and 25 °C. The total color difference values (ΔE) exhibited a significant linear response to TVB-N levels ranging from 4.29 to 30.80 mg/100 g at 4 °C (R2 = 0.98). Therefore, the PAAm/BCG indicator demonstrated stable and sensitive color changes based on pH variations and could be employed in smart packaging for real-time assessment of fish freshness.

Abstract
With the increasing concerns of food safety and public health, tremendous efforts have been concentrated on the development of effective, reliable, nondestructive methods to evaluate the freshness level of different kinds of food. Natural colorants-based intelligent colorimetric indicators which are typically constructed with natural colorants and polymer matrices has been regarded as an innovative approach to notify the customers and retailers of the food quality during the storage and transportation procedure in real-time. This review briefly elucidates the mechanism of natural colorants used for intelligent colorimetric indicators and fabrication methodologies of natural colorants-based food freshness indicators. Subsequently, their multifunctional applications in intelligent food packaging systems like antioxidant packaging, antimicrobial packaging, biodegradable packaging, UV-blocking packaging and inkless packaging are well introduced. This paper also summarizes several optimizing strategies for the practical application of this advanced technology from different perspectives. Strategies like adopting a hydrophobic matrix, constructing double-layer film and encapsulation have been developed to improve the stability of the indicators. Co-pigmentation, metal ion complexation, pigment-mixing and using substrates with high surface area are proved to be effective to enhance the sensitivity of the indicators. Approaches include multi-index evaluation, machine learning and smartphone-assisted evaluation have been proven to improve the accuracy of the intelligent food freshness indicators. Finally, future research opportunities and challenges are proposed. Based on the fundamental understanding of natural colorants-based intelligent colorimetric food freshness indicators, and the latest research and findings from literature, this review article will help to develop better, lower cost and more reliable food freshness evaluation technique for modern food industry.

Abstract
A nanofiber film was prepared by a facile electrospinning technique using polylactide (PLA), butterfly pea flower extract (BPA) and cinnamaldehyde (CIN). The as-prepared film shows the prominent antioxidative, antibacterial, colorimetric and hydrophobic properties so that the beef freshness can be monitored and maintained up to 6 days at 4 °C simultaneously. Besides, the nanofiber structure endows the film with a fast color responsiveness under acidic-alkaline atmospheres with different concentrations. Moreover, this film exhibits higher tensile strength (9.56 Mpa) than that of the pure PLA electrospinning film (4.40 Mpa). Especially the introduction of the BPA effectively boosts the antimicrobial ability of the CIN. The freshness, sub-freshness and spoilage levels of the beef can be easily testified by observing the color difference change of the film. So the polylactide based multifunctional film as an intelligent packaging has an excellent potential for the sub-freshness detection of meat.

Abstract
Lonicera caerulaea L. and Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.) Elliot fruits are frequently used for their health benefits as they are rich in bioactive compounds. They are recognized as a source of natural and valuable phytonutrients, which makes them a superfood. L. caerulea presents antioxidant activity three to five times higher than other berries which are more commonly consumed, such as blackberries or strawberries. In addition, their ascorbic acid level is the highest among fruits. The species A. melanocarpa is considered one of the richest known sources of antioxidants, surpassing currants, cranberries, blueberries, elderberries, and gooseberries, and contains one of the highest amounts of sorbitol. The non-edible leaves of genus Aronia became more extensively analyzed as a byproduct or waste material due to their high polyphenol, flavonoid, and phenolic acid content, along with a small amount of anthocyanins, which are used as ingredients in nutraceuticals, herbal teas, bio-cosmetics, cosmeceuticals, food and by the pharmaceutical industry. These plants are a rich source of vitamins, tocopherols, folic acid, and carotenoids. However, they remain outside of mainstream fruit consumption, being well known only to a small audience. This review aims to shed light on L. caerulaea and A. melanocarpa and their bioactive compounds as healthy superfoods with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, antimicrobial, and anti-diabetic effects, and hepato-, cardio-, and neuro-protective potential. In this view, we hope to promote their cultivation and processing, increase their commercial availability, and also highlight the ability of these species to be used as potential nutraceutical sources, helpful for human health.

[PMID: 36252374 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.134453] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Colorants are widely employed in the food industry as an essential ingredient in many products since color is one of the most valued attributes by consumers. Furthermore, the utilization of colorants is currently being extended to the food packaging technologies. The objective of this review was to compile recent information about the main families of natural coloring compounds, and to describe their real implications in food coloring. In addition, their technological use in different food systems (namely, bakery products, beverages, meat and meat products, and dairy products) and their utilization in intelligent packaging to monitor the freshness of foodstuffs with the aim of extending food shelf life and improving food properties was discussed. The potential of using natural colorant in different food to improve their color has been demonstrated, although color stability is still a challenging task. More interestingly, the application of intelligent colorimetric indicators to exhibit color changes with variations in pH can enable real-time monitoring of food quality.

Recent Advances and Applications in Starch for Intelligent Active Food Packaging: A Review. Foods 2022; 11:foods11182879. [PMID: 36141005 PMCID: PMC9498516 DOI: 10.3390/foods11182879] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2022] [Revised: 09/10/2022] [Accepted: 09/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
At present, the research and innovation of packaging materials are in a period of rapid development. Starch, a sustainable, low-cost, and abundant polymer, can develop environmentally friendly packaging alternatives, and it possesses outstanding degradability and reproducibility in terms of improving environmental issues and reducing oil resources. However, performance limitations, such as less mechanical strength and lower barrier properties, limit the application of starch in the packaging industry. The properties of starch-based films can be improved by modifying starch, adding reinforcing groups, or blending with other polymers. It is of significance to study starch as an active and intelligent packaging option for prolonging shelf life and monitoring the extent of food deterioration. This paper reviews the development of starch-based films, the current methods to enhance the mechanical and barrier properties of starch-based films, and the latest progress in starch-based activity, intelligent packaging, and food applications. The potential challenges and future development directions of starch-based films in the food industry are also discussed.
