Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 275:133535. [PMID: 38945318 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024]
Abstract
Petroleum-based packaging materials are nondegradable and unsustainable and thus are harmful to the environment. Renewable packaging films prepared from bio-based raw materials are promising alternatives to petroleum-based packaging materials. In this study, colorless and transparent bio-based films were successfully cast using a solution containing a mixture of arabinogalactan (AG) and poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA). Vanillin was incorporated into the mixture to endow the films with UV-shielding, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. The morphological, physical, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties of the blend films were then characterized. At an AG:PVA weight ratio of 1:3, and the vanillin content was 0.15 %, the tensile strength of the AG/PVA/Vanillin (APV) films reached ~28 MPa, while their elongation at break reached ~475 %. The addition of vanillin significantly affected the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of the blend films, which exhibited superb UV barrier capacity. The APV films exhibited extremely low oxygen transmittance, delaying the onset of mold/rot in strawberries and reducing their weight loss. Because of the heat sealability of the blend films, they can be used for encapsulating various substances, such as concentrated laundry liquid. Moreover, the blend films were recyclable and biodegradable. Thus, these films have great potential for applications that require sustainable packaging.

Evaluation biodegradable films with green tea extract for interleafing sliced meat products. Food Chem 2024; 458:140159. [PMID: 38959804 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
A selection of formulations with different polymers and concentrations of green tea extract was conducted for application as interleafs in sliced meat products. Films were formulated using cellulose acetate, corn starch, and chitosan with the addition of 1.0, 2.5, and 5.0% green tea extract. Higher antioxidant activity was observed with the 1.0% concentration of green tea extract (P < 0.05), regardless of the formulation, with continuous release of the extract for up to 60 days and average IC50 of 0.09 and 0.31 mg/mL for the corn starch and chitosan active films, respectively. Interleafing the sliced ham resulted in lower lipid oxidation after 60 days of storage (P < 0.05). Starch-based films with green tea extract were effective, significantly reducing lipid oxidation in sliced and interleafed cooked ham, suggesting their potential to extend the shelf life of these refrigerated products.

Abstract
Researchers are addressing environmental concerns related to petroleum-based plastic packaging by exploring biopolymers from natural sources, chemical synthesis, and microbial fermentation. Despite the potential of individual biopolymers, they often exhibit limitations like low water resistance and poor mechanical properties. Blending polymers emerges as a promising strategy to overcome these challenges, creating films with enhanced performance. This review focuses on recent advancements in chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) blend food packaging films. It covers molecular structure, properties, strategies for performance improvement, and applications in food preservation. The blend's excellent compatibility and intermolecular interactions make it a promising candidate for biodegradable films. Future research should explore large-scale thermoplastic technologies and investigate the incorporation of additives like natural extracts and nanoparticles to enhance film properties. Chitosan/PVA blend films offer a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based plastic packaging, with potential applications in practical food preservation.

Abstract
Bioactive compounds that can be recovered by the solid wastes of the olive oil sector, such as polyphenols, are known for their significant antioxidant and antimicrobial activities with potential application in nutraceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. Given that industrial demands are growing, and the polyphenol market value is ever increasing, a systematic study on the recovery of natural antioxidant compounds from olive pomace using ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was conducted. Single-factor parameters, i.e., the extraction solvent, time, and solid-to-liquid ratio, were investigated evaluating the total phenolic content (TPC) recovery and the antioxidant activity of the final extract. The acetone-water system (50% v/v, 20 min, 1:20 g mL-1) exhibited the highest total phenolic content recovery (168.8 ± 5.5 mg GAE per g of dry extract). The olive pomace extract (OPE) was further assessed for its antioxidant and antibacterial activities. In DPPH, ABTS, and CUPRAC, OPE exhibited an antioxidant capacity of 413.6 ± 1.9, 162.72 ± 3.36 and 384.9 ± 7.86 mg TE per g of dry extract, respectively. The antibacterial study showed that OPE attained a minimum inhibitory activity (MIC) of 2.5 mg mL-1 against E. coli and 10 mg mL-1 against B. subtilis. Hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol were identified as the major phenolic compounds of OPE. Furthermore, active chitosan-polyvinyl alcohol (CHT/PVA) films were prepared using different OPE loadings (0.01-0.1%, w/v). OPE-enriched films showed a dose-dependent antiradical scavenging activity reaching 85.7 ± 4.6% (ABTS) and inhibition growth up to 81% against B. subtilis compared to the control film. Increased UV light barrier ability was also observed for the films containing OPE. These results indicate that OPE is a valuable source of phenolic compounds with promising biological activities that can be exploited for developing multifunctional food packaging materials.

Abstract
The poor mechanical properties, low water-resistance, and limited antimicrobial activity of chitosan (CS)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) based film limited its application in aquatic product preservation. Herein, bacterial cellulose (BC) was used to load ginger essential oil (GEO). The effects of the addition of BC and different concentrations of GEO on the physicochemical and antimicrobial activities of films were systematically evaluated. Finally, the application of sea bass fillets was investigated. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) analysis indicated dense networks were formed, which was verified by enhanced physical properties. The mechanical properties, barrier properties, and antimicrobial activities enhanced as GEO concentration increased. CPB0.8 (0.8 % GEO) film had better tensile strength (TS) and barrier performance, improved the quality, and extended the shelf-life of sea bass for another 6 days at least. Overall, active films are potential packaging materials for aquatic products.

Abstract
This work explores the development and characterization of composite multilayer films comprising bacterial cellulose (BC) and chitosan enriched with antioxidant compounds from grape bagasse extract (GE) and glycerol. SEM images revealed a compact structure with successful interactions between BC and chitosan, confirmed by FT-IR analysis. Equilibrium moisture content, water vapor permeability (WVP), swollen capacity, and solubility were systematically investigated, unveiling the influence of glycerol and GE concentrations. Moisture content increased with elevated glycerol and GE levels, attributed to their hydrophilic nature. WVP rose with higher concentrations of hydrophilic compounds, affecting the films' permeability. Swollen capacity decreased, and solubility increased with the addition of GE and glycerol, indicating a more compact film structure. The incorporation of GE conferred antioxidant properties to the films, as evidenced by DPPH and ABTS+ assays, and Total Phenolic Content (TPC) determination. TPC values varied from 0 to 1.75 mg GAE/g dried film, depending on GE. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) highlighted polymeric associations, and UV-Vis spectra demonstrated enhanced UV-blocking properties. Overall, these multilayer films offer promising applications in food packaging, leveraging natural antioxidant sources for an enhanced functionality.

Abstract
Semicrystalline polymers under nanoconfinement show distinct structural and thermomechanical properties compared to their bulk counterparts. Despite extensive research on semicrystalline polymers under nanoconfinement, the nanoconfinement effect on the local crystallization process and the unique structural evolution of such polymers have not been fully understood. In this study, we unveil such effects by using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to study the crystallization process of a model semicrystalline polymer-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-under different levels of nanoconfinement induced by nanoparticles that are represented implicitly. We quantify in detail the evolution of the degree of crystallinity (XC) of PVA and examine distinct crystalline regions from simulation results. The results show that nanoconfinement can promote the crystallization process, especially at the early stage, and the interfaces between nanoparticles and polymer can function as crystallite nucleation sites. In general, the final XC of PVA increases with the levels of nanoconfinement. Further, nanoconfined cases show region-dependent XC with higher and earlier increase of XC in regions closer to the interfaces. By tracking region-dependent XC evolution, our results indicate that nanoconfinement can lead to a heterogenous crystallization process with a second-stage crystallite nucleation in regions further away from the interfaces. In addition, our results show that even under very high cooling rates, the nanoconfinement still promotes the crystallization of PVA. This study provides important insights into the underlying mechanisms for the intricate interplay between nanoconfinement and the crystallization behaviors of semicrystalline polymer, with the potential to guide the design and characterization of semicrystalline polymer-based nanocomposites.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to purify sodium maltobionate using Zymomonas mobilis cells immobilized in situ on flexible polyurethane (PU) and convert it into maltobionic acid for further evaluation of bioactivity (iron chelating ability, antibacterial potential and cytoprotection) and incorporation into films based on cassava starch, chitosan, and cellulose acetate. Sodium maltobionate exhibited a purity of 98.1% and demonstrated an iron chelating ability of approximately 50% at concentrations ranging from 15 to 20 mg mL-1. Maltobionic acid displayed minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 8.5, 10.5, 8.0, and 8.0 mg mL-1 for Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes, respectively. Maltobionic acid did not exhibit cytotoxicity in HEK-293 cells at concentrations up to 500 µg mL-1. Films incorporating 7.5% maltobionic acid into cassava starch and chitosan demonstrated inhibition of microbial growth, with halo sizes ranging from 15.67 to 22.33 mm. These films had a thickness of 0.17 and 0.13 mm, water solubility of 62.68% and 78.85%, and oil solubility of 6.23% and 11.91%, respectively. The cellulose acetate film exhibited a non-uniform visual appearance due to the low solubility of maltobionic acid in acetone. Mechanical and optical properties were enhanced with the addition of maltobionic acid to chitosan and cassava films. The chitosan film with 7.5% maltobionic acid demonstrated higher tensile strength (30.3 MPa) and elongation at break (9.0%). In contrast, the cassava starch film exhibited a high elastic modulus (1.7). Overall, maltobionic acid, with its antibacterial activity, holds promise for applications in active films suitable for food packaging.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of adding lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) derived from Oxytenanthera abyssinica via alkali-acid nanoprecipitation method to polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CI) and polyvinyl alcohol/chitin (PVA/CH) films for the active food packaging applications. Adding LNPs at concentrations of 1 % and 3 % improved the films' thermal stability and mechanical properties. The lowest water solubility and moisture content were observed in PVA/CI/LNPs films. LNPs exhibited effective 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities, with the highest values observed in PVA/CH/LNPS and PVA/CI/LNPS films with values of 87.47 and 88.74 % respectively. The addition of LNPs also improved the UV-blocking abilities of the films. PVA/CH/LNP3 and PVA/CI/LNP3 have the smallest percentage transmission values of 3.34 % and 0.86 % in the UV range. The overall migration of dietary stimulants was lower in PVA/CI/LNPS and PVA/CH/LNPS films compared to PVA film. Antibacterial tests demonstrated the inhibitory capacity of the synthesized biofilms against both gram-positive and negative bacterial species, with the highest inhibitory value of 26 mm. The study suggests that PVA/CH/LNPS and PVA/CI/LNPS films have potential applications as active food packaging materials and can be explored in other potential applications such as drug delivery, tissue engineering, wound healing, and slow-release urea fertilizer development.

Abstract
This study aims to address the issue of environmental pollution caused by non-biodegradable petroleum-based food packaging by exploring the application of biodegradable films. Film casting was employed to fabricate food packaging films from chitosan (CS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymers blended with moringa extract (MoE) and various concentrations of magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs). The films were characterized through multiple techniques, including UV spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Fourier-transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The study investigated the physicomechanical properties, water solubility, water vapor transmission rate, oxygen permeability, migration test, biodegradability, contact angle, anti-fogging, antibacterial and antifungal activity, and application of the films for food packaging. The results showed that blending CS/PVA films with MoE and MgO NPs significantly improved their mechanical properties. The highest tensile strength of 98 MPa was observed in the CPMMgO-0.5 film. The solubility of the films was low, with CPMMgO-0 and CPMMgO-0.25 demonstrating the lowest solubility as weight decreased by 3.41 % and 3.47 %, respectively. The water vapor transmission rate and oxygen permeability decreased with increasing MgO NP concentrations, with the CPMMgO-0.5 film exhibiting the lowest values. The films also demonstrated good biodegradability, anti-fogging ability, antibacterial and antifungal activity, and low water solubility, enabling bead encapsulation over 14 days in good condition. Moreover, the thermal stability of the films was improved, extending the shelf life of bread. Therefore, the fabricated films provide a promising alternative to non-degradable plastic packaging, which heavily contributes to environmental pollution.

Xiao Z, Liu C, Rong X, Sameen DE, Guo L, Zhang J, Chu X, Chen M, Liu Y, Qin W. Development of curcumin-containing polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan active/intelligent films for preservation and monitoring of Schizothorax prenanti fillets freshness. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127343. [PMID: 37820899 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127343] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
Active/intelligent films for the preservation and monitoring of Schizothorax prenanti fillets freshness were prepared by combining curcumin (CUR) with polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) matrix. SEM images showed that the CUR with a maximum content of 1.5 % (w/w) was evenly distributed in the composite matrix. The addition of CUR did not affect the chemical structure of PVA/CS matrix, as confirmed by FTIR investigation. When 1.5 % (w/w) CUR was added, the water vapor barrier property, tensile strength and antioxidant activity of the composite film were the best, which were 5.38 ± 0.25 × 10-11 g/m·s·Pa, 62.05 ± 1.68 MPa and 85.50 ± 3.63 %, respectively. Water solubility of PVA/CS/CUR-1.5 % film was reduced by approximately 27 % compared to PVA/CS film. After adding CUR, the antibacterial properties of the composite film increased significantly. Although the addition of CUR reduced the biodegradability of PVA/CS film, the PVA/CS/CUR-1.5 % film degraded >60 % within 5 weeks. By measuring pH, weight loss, total volatile base‑nitrogen (TVB-N), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and total viable counts (TVC), the preservation effect of the composite films on the fish freshness was evaluated. The fish shelf life treated by PVA/CS/CUR-1.5 % film expanded from 3-6 days to 12-15 days at 4 °C. In addition, when PVA/CS/CUR-1.5 % film was used to monitor the fish freshness, it exhibited clear color fluctuations, from yellow to orange and to red, corresponding to first-grade freshness, second-grade freshness, and rottenness of the fish, respectively. As a result, the films can be successfully used for Schizothorax prenanti fillets preservation and deterioration monitoring.

Abstract
In this study, a composite film was created with the dual goal of prolonging pork shelf life and showing freshness. Hydrogel materials as solid base films were selected from gelatin (G), sodium alginate (SA) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) based on their antioxidant activity, water vapor permeability, mechanical properties, as well as their stability, antimicrobial activity, and freshness, which indicates effectiveness when combined with anthocyanins. Furthermore, the effects of several concentrations of red cabbage anthocyanin (R) (3%, 6%, 12%, and 24%) on freshness indicators and bacteriostasis were investigated. The antimicrobial activity of the composite films was evaluated against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Staphylococcus aureus. Likewise, the freshness indicates effectiveness was evaluated for NH3. Considering the mechanical properties, antibacterial ability, freshness indicator effect, and stability of the composite film, CS film combined with 12% R was selected to prepare a dual-functional intelligent film for pork freshness indicator and preservation. By thoroughly investigating the effect of composite film on pork conservation and combining with it KNN, the discriminative model of pork freshness grade was established and the recognition rate of the prediction set was up to 93.3%. These results indicated that CSR film can be used for the creation of active food packaging materials.

Abstract
The effect of lithium iodide (LiI) on the mechanical strength, properties, and molecular orientation of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) fibers spun by wet spinning and then heat-stretched was studied. The stretchability of LiI-PVA fibers was improved, and the rupture during stretching was suppressed compared to PVA fibers. In addition, the tensile strength and elastic modulus of the thermally stretched fibers have been significantly improved. It was also found that the addition of LiI improves the molecular orientation of PVA. This was achieved because LiI reduced the hydrogen bonds between the molecular chains of PVA, resulting in reduced crystallinity. Most of the LiI in the fiber could be removed by a coagulation bath and washing during the spinning process. This means that LiI is eventually removed, and the heat-treatment strengthens the hydrogen bonds, resulting in excellent mechanical strength.

Abstract
Active packaging is one of the currently thriving methods to preserve highly perishable foods. Nonetheless, the integration of active substances into the formulation of the packaging may alter their properties-particularly mass transfer properties-and therefore, the active compounds acting. Different formulations of chitosan (CH), starch (ST), and their blends (CH-ST), with the addition of mango leaf extract (MLE) have been polymerized by casting to evaluate their food preservation efficiency. A CH-ST blend with 3% MLE using 7.5 mL of the filmogenic solution proved to be the most effective formulation because of its high bioactivity (ca. 80% and 74% of inhibition growth of S. aureus and E. coli, respectively, and 40% antioxidant capacity). The formulation reduced the water solubility and water vapor permeability while increasing UV protection, properties that provide a better preservation of raspberry fruit after 13 days than the control. Moreover, a novel method of Headspace-Gas Chromatography-Ion Mobility Spectrometry to analyze the volatile profiles of the films is employed, to study the potential modification of the food in contact with the active film. These migrated compounds were shown to be closely related to both the mango extract additions and the film's formulation themselves, showing different fingerprints depending on the film.

Abstract
In this study, the plate casting method was successfully used to prepare biocomposite films containing EPS from probiotic Enterococcus faecium MC-5 in combination with PVA and chitosan. The findings demonstrated that EPS was uniformly distributed in the film matrices and significantly improved the physicochemical properties of the resulting composite films. The development of intermolecular connections between the polymers was detected by high tensile strength and low water vapour transmission rate. EPS plays an important role in limiting the passage of UV- and visible light radiations through the films. FT-IR analysis was used to determine the molecular compatibility between the functional groups of the blended films made up of chitosan-EPS and PVA-EPS. The TGA results showed that composite films have a significant degree of thermal stability. The presence of amorphous peaks in the composite film was confirmed by XRD analysis. The EPS blended films displayed a greater antioxidant property than the PVA and chitosan films, as determined by DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities. Interestingly, the EPS-derived films showed enhanced metal chelation activity and strong antibacterial properties against Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus. EPS-based composite films performed better than chitosan and PVA films in terms of degradation rate. The overall functional characteristics of the EPS blended films suggested that they could be used as a packaging material to replace or reduce the use of conventional petroleum-based packaging materials.

Abstract
In this study, the composite films of poly(vinyl alcohol) and citric acid cross-linked chitosan were prepared, and the effect of mass ratio on their structure and properties was investigated in detail. Chitosan was cross-linked by citric acid via an amidation reaction at an elevated temperature, which was confirmed by infrared spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectra. Chitosan is miscible with PVA due to the formation of strong hydrogen bonds between them. Among these composite films, 1:1 CS/PVA film showed excellent mechanical properties, good creep resistance, and shape recovery ability, attributing to its high crosslinking degree. In addition, this film possessed hydrophobicity, excellent self-adhesion property, and the lowest WVP, and it was successfully used as a packaging material for cherry. These observations indicate that the cooperative effects of crosslinking and hydrogen bonds control the structure and properties of chitosan/PVA composite film, which is a very potential material for food packaging and preservation.

Abstract
Curcumin has been used in traditional medicine forages. The present study aimed to develop a curcumin-based hydrogel system and assess its antimicrobial potential and wound healing (WH) activity on an invitro and in silico basis. A topical hydrogel was prepared using chitosan, PVA, and Curcumin in varied ratios, and hydrogels were evaluated for physicochemical properties. The hydrogel showed antimicrobial activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms. In silico studies showed good binding energy scores and significant interaction of curcumin components with key residues of inflammatory proteins that help in WH activity. Dissolution studies showed sustained release of curcumin. Overall, the results indicated wound healing potential of chitosan-PVA-curcumin hydrogel films. Further in vivo experiments are needed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of such films for wound healing.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are naturally occurring complex molecules with exceptional physicochemical properties and bioactivities. They originate from plant, animal, and microbial-based resources and processes and can be chemically modified. The biocompatibility and biodegradability of polysaccharides enable their increased use in nanoscale synthesis and engineering for drug encapsulation and release. This review focuses on sustained drug release studies from nanoscale polysaccharides in the fields of nanotechnology and biomedical sciences. Particular emphasis is placed on drug release kinetics and relevant mathematical models. An effective release model can be used to envision the behavior of specific nanoscale polysaccharide matrices and reduce impending experimental trial and error, saving time and resources. A robust model can also assist in translating from in vitro to in vivo experiments. The main aim of this review is to demonstrate that any study that establishes sustained release from nanoscale polysaccharide matrices should be accompanied by a detailed analysis of drug release kinetics by modeling since sustained release from polysaccharides not only involves diffusion and degradation but also surface erosion, complicated swelling dynamics, crosslinking, and drug-polymer interactions. As such, in the first part, we discuss the classification and role of polysaccharides in various applications and later elaborate on the specific pharmaceutical processes of polysaccharides in ionic gelling, stabilization, cross-linking, grafting, and encapsulation of drugs. We also document several drug release models applied to nanoscale hydrogels, nanofibers, and nanoparticles of polysaccharides and conclude that, at times, more than one model can accurately describe the sustained release profiles, indicating the existence of release mechanisms running in parallel. Finally, we conclude with the future opportunities and advanced applications of nanoengineered polysaccharides and their theranostic aptitudes for future clinical applications.

Abstract
Cassava starch/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CC) was used as the substrate to create a multipurpose food packaging film, and caffeic acid@silica nanoparticles (C@SNPs) was added. The encapsulation rate of caffeic acid in C@SNPs was 84.7 ± 0.97 %. According to SEM pictures, the nanoparticles were evenly dispersed throughout the film and exhibited good compatibility with the other polymers. C@SNPs was added, which enhanced the physical characteristics of film and decreased its water solubility. The best mechanical and oxygen barrier qualities among them are found in the C@SCC5:1 film, whose tensile strength rises from 7.17 MPa to 15.44 MPa. The C@SCC5:1 film has scavenging rates of 95.43 % and 84.67 % against ABTS and DPPH free radicals, respectively, and CA can be released continuously in various food systems. In addition, the antibacterial rate of E. coli O157:H7 and S. aureus of C@SCC5:1 film in meat was 99.9 %, and it can effectively delay lipid oxidation and pH rise. In conclusion,C@SCC5:1 film is a new type of antibacterial and antioxidant food packaging material.

Abstract
Polysaccharide films containing protein additives have good application prospects in agriculture and food field. However, interfacial incompatibility between hydrophobic proteins and hydrophilic polymers remains a major technical challenge. In this work, the interfacial compatibility between hydrophobic zein and hydrophilic chitosan (CS) is improved by the chemical crosslinking between zinc ions of curcumin-loaded zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (Cur-ZIF-8) with CS and zein. With the improvement of interface compatibility, the results show that the elongation at break and O2 barrier property of synthesized Cur-ZIF-8/CS/Zein are 9.2 and 1.5 times higher than CS/Zein, respectively. And the Cur-ZIF-8/CS/Zein exhibits superior antibacterial and antioxidant properties as well. Importantly, Cur-ZIF-8/CS/Zein can also be used as an intelligent-responsive release platform for curcumin. As a result, Cur-ZIF-8/CS/Zein can keep the freshness and appearance of litchi at least 8 days longer than that of CS/Zein. Therefore, this study provides a novel method to improve the interfacial compatibility between hydrophobic proteins and hydrophilic polymers, and is expected to expand the application of protein/polymer composites in agriculture and food field.

Abstract
Nasal turbinate hypertrophy is among the most common nasal obstruction disorders, affecting the patient's quality of life significantly. Endoscopic submucosal diathermy is a prevalent cauterization procedure for treating turbinate hypertrophy. Regrettably, the nasal burn associated with diathermy typically heals slowly causing facial pain and nasal bleeding and possibly resulting in synechiae formation. In the current study, we have developed, for the first time, a polymeric film loaded with cholecalciferol for local treatment of nasal burns. The casting method was used to prepare films of different compositions of polymers such as chitosan, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), Carbopol 971p (CP971p), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as well as a plasticizer. Several characterizations were performed for the cholecalciferol-loaded films (e.g. weight, thickness, content uniformity, surface pH, folding endurance, disintegration time, and in vitro release) to select the optimal formulation. The optimal formulation (F4) displayed compatibility between the used polymers and the drug. In vivo animal study was carried out to assess the healing efficacy of the formulated cholecalciferol-loaded film. The rabbits treated with the cholecalciferol-loaded film demonstrated significantly higher mRNA expression of the growth factor TGF-β and significantly lower mRNA expression of the proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α and IL-1β compared to the plain film treated group and the untreated control group. A randomized, single-blinded, parallel, controlled clinical trial was conducted on 20 patients scheduled to undergo endoscopic submucous diathermy. The results of the clinical study demonstrated significant reductions in facial pain and nasal bleeding scores for the nostrils treated with cholecalciferol-loaded films in comparison to the nostrils treated with plain films. Furthermore, the endoscopic examination showed good healing for 95% of the cholecalciferol-loaded film-treated nostrils. In conclusion, the optimized film can be considered an opportune approach for enhancing the healing rate of nasal burns and thus reducing the downsides of the diathermy procedure.

Abstract
Vanillic acid incorporated chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) active films were prepared by employing a cost-effective solvent casting technique. FTIR investigation validated the intermolecular interaction and formation of Schiff's base (C=N) between functional groups of vanillic acid, chitosan, and poly(vinyl alcohol). The addition of vanillic acid resulted in homogenous and dense morphology, as confirmed by SEM micrographs. The tensile strength of active films increased from 32 to 59 MPa as the amount of vanillic acid increased and the obtained values are more significant than reported polyethylene (2231 MPa) and polypropylene (31-38 MPa) films, widely utilized in food packaging. Active film's UV, water, and oxygen barrier properties exhibited excellent results with the incorporation of vanillic acid. Around 40 % of degradation commences within 15 days. Synergistic impact against S. aureus, E. coli, and C. albicans pathogens caused the expansion of the inhibition zone, evidenced by the excellent antimicrobial activity. The highest antioxidant capacity, 73.65 % of CPV-4 active film, proved that active films could prevent the spoilage of food from oxidation. Green chillies packaging was carried out to examine the potential of prepared active films as packaging material results in successfully sustaining carotenoid accumulation and prolonging the shelf life compared to conventional polyethylene (PE) packaging.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the synthesis parameters and the incorporation of natural polyphenolic extract within hydrogel networks on the mechanical and morphological properties of physically cross-linked xanthan gum/poly(vinyl alcohol) (XG/PVA) composite hydrogels prepared by multiple cryo-structuration steps. In this context, the toughness, compressive strength, and viscoelasticity of polyphenol-loaded XG/PVA composite hydrogels in comparison with those of the neat polymer networks were investigated by uniaxial compression tests and steady and oscillatory measurements under small deformation conditions. The swelling behavior, the contact angle values, and the morphological features revealed by SEM and AFM analyses were well correlated with the uniaxial compression and rheological results. The compressive tests revealed an enhancement of the network rigidity by increasing the number of cryogenic cycles. On the other hand, tough and flexible polyphenol-loaded composite films were obtained for a weight ratio between XG and PVA of 1:1 and 10 v/v% polyphenol. The gel behavior was confirmed for all composite hydrogels, as the elastic modulus (G') was significantly greater than the viscous modulus (G″) for the entire frequency range.

Abstract
The effectiveness of plastic packaging in protecting food is quite appreciable, but its non-biodegradable characteristic raises concerns about environmental impacts. This has drawn attention to the development of alternative materials for food packaging from bio-based polymers. Chitosan, a polysaccharide with biodegradable, biocompatible, and non-toxic properties, is widely used in the formulation of food films. The objective of this work was to create a biodegradable and sustainable chitosan-based film whose active and intelligent action is obtained from red cabbage anthocyanins and the addition of propolis. The edible film’s thickness and total polyphenol content were 61.0 ±0.1μm and 20.08 ±0.5 mgAG g-1, respectively. The content of phenolic compounds and the biodegradation showed significant results (p <0.05), besides the good thermal stability to 200 °C and transparency. The proposed formulation developed an edible, biodegradable, and active (antioxidant) film with interesting heat-sealing resistance, moisture barrier and gas transfer, which contributes to increasing food shelf life.

Abstract
Hops' (Humulus lupulus L.) phytochemicals are well known for their bioactivity. In the present study, the functional properties of hop extract rich in β-acids, as potassium-salts structures (KBA), were investigated to develop a sustainable active food packaging. Polylactic acid (PLA)-based sheets were incorporated with increasing concentrations of hop extract (0.1-5 % w/w in terms of KBA) and characterized through performance and bioactive properties. KBA-added sheets presented decreased crystallinity and affected mechanical and thermal properties, especially with higher KBA amounts. The sheets' surface hydrophobicity gradually decreased by KBA-extract addition, while the water vapor permeability was not affected. A Fickian diffuse behavior and a better fit to application in fatty foods were observed during release tests. UV-blocking and antioxidant properties were improved by KBA incorporation. Furthermore, results from antibacterial assays revealed great susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes towards sheets added with 5 % of KBA. Moreover, the atomic force microscopy (AFM) observations revealed that KBA led to strong effects on the cell membranes of both bacteria, including disruption of membrane integrity and cell death. Therefore, this study is a sign of great prospects of hop β-acids use, as KBA compound, in the production of sustainable active packaging for safe food shelf-life extension.

Abstract
Research shows that the composite material is used as an adsorbent to remove pollutants from wastewater. This work is aimed at producing a novel composite film comprising chitosan, polyvinyl alcohol, and cornstarch incorporating nanocellulose (CPCN). The composite film was prepared by a blending method wherein nanocellulose was extracted using a chemical method from banana bract. The prepared CPCN was characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDX to understand their molecular interaction and surface morphology, respectively. The effect of parameters including pH, adsorbent dosage, initial dye concentration, and contact time on the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) dye was studied. The maximum adsorption was found to be up to 63.13 mg/g MB with a pH of 10, adsorbent dosage of 2 g, an initial concentration of 150 ppm, and contact time of 120 min at room temperature (25°C) indicating a moderate adsorption capacity of the CPCN. Comparing the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm models, the former fitted well with MB dye adsorption data, implying that the models can be applied to uptake MB dye by CPCN. In the kinetic adsorption experiment, the adsorbed dye almost reached equilibrium at about 120 min for the CPCN and followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Therefore, the CPCN can be used as a potential adsorbent in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The development of biopolymer-based green packaging films has gained remarkable attention in recent years. In this study, curcumin active films were prepared using different proportions of gelatin (GE) and a soluble fraction of tragacanth gum (SFTG) (1GE:1SFTG and 2GE:1SFTG) by complex coacervation. The various ratios of used biopolymers did not significantly impact the mechanical properties, thickness, and WVP of final films. However, biopolymers' ratio impacted the moisture content, water solubility, swelling ratio, and release rate. Blending curcumin with biopolymers caused a reduction in tensile strength (from 1.74 MPa to 0.62 MPa for film containing 1GE:1SFTG and from 1.77 MPa to 0.17 MPa for film containing 2GE:1SFTG) and proliferation in elongation at break (from 81.48% to 122.00% for film containing 1GE:1SFTG and from 98.87% to 109.58% MPa for film containing 2GE:1SFTG). Moisture content and water solubility of films experienced a decrease after the addition of curcumin. Antioxidant activity of curcumin-loaded films was almost five times higher than neat film samples. Furthermore, the interreaction between the carboxylic group of SFTG and amide I of GE formed an amide linkage and was proven by FTIR analysis. TGA showed a drop in the thermal stability of film samples compared to the main ingredients. In general, the complex coacervate of SFTG and GE has the advantage of developing eco-friendly and low-cost packaging film in the food industry, especially for the protection of fatty foods.

Abstract
The development of new materials for food packaging applications is necessary to reduce the excessive use of disposable plastics and their environmental impact. Biodegradable polymers represent an alternative means of mitigating the problem. To add value to biodegradable materials and to enhance food preservation, the incorporation of active compounds into the polymer matrix is an affordable strategy. Phenolic acids are plant metabolites that can be found in multiple plant extracts and exhibit antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Compared with other natural active compounds, such as essential oils, phenolic acids do not present a high sensorial impact while exhibiting similar minimal inhibitory concentrations against different bacteria. This study summarizes and discusses recent studies about the potential of both phenolic acids/plant extracts and biodegradable polymers as active food packaging materials, their properties, interactions, and the factors that could affect their antimicrobial efficiency. The molecular structure of phenolic acids greatly affects their potential antioxidant and antimicrobial capacity, as well as their specific interactions with polymer matrices and food substrates. These interactions, in turn, can lead to plasticizing or cross-linking effects. In the present study, the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of different biodegradable films with phenolic acids have been described, as well as the main factors affecting the active properties of these films as useful materials for active packaging development. More studies applying these active materials in real foods are required.

Abstract
Avocadoes are a rich source of nutrients and nutraceuticals that preserve human health. Nevertheless, this fruit is susceptible to phytopathogen infection during the postharvest period causing severe economic losses. Herein, we report on the in situ antifungal assessment of biodegradable films impregnated with the essential oil of Cinnamomum verum (CvEO) as natural fungistatic coatings to extend postharvest quality of Hass avocadoes ( Persea americana cv. Hass). These coatings were evaluated on fruits previously infected with a native strain of Fusarium verticillioides . The cytotoxic assessment of CvEO on F. verticillioides revealed a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.3 ± 0.0 g L -1 whereas its chemical profiling showed ( E )-cinnamaldehyde (45.9 %) 1,3,8- p -menthatriene (7.9 %) and linalool (6.8 %) as the major bioactive compounds. Four coatings (FC1-FC4) were made using chitosan (1 %) and a diverse quantity of CvEO (0.4-1.3 % w/v). The physicochemical properties demonstrated that the films FC3 and FC4 have the optimal characteristics of a food coating. Avocadoes preserved with the films FC3 and FC4 substantially kept (p < 0.01) fruit firmness and the nutraceutical content of infected avocados at least for 21 d. The results of the present investigation suggest that our hybrid materials are able to conserve basic nutritional parameters such as fiber, protein, reducing sugars, as well as the content of unsaturated fatty acids which are the main nutraceuticals of this fruit.

Abstract
The recent interest in food biopackaging is showing an increasing trend, especially in the development of antimicrobial coatings and films. The focus of this study is to assess the potential application of ginger (Zingiber officinale) essential oil (GEO) to polysaccharide films based on chitosan (CHf) and their utilization as an active edible packaging. The films were characterized by different instrumental techniques, and data indicated significant differences (p < 0.05) in the chemical composition of the samples. Forty-seven active compounds from ginger rhizomes were identified in the examined essential oil by gas chromatography mass spectrometer (GC-MS). Fourier transforms infrared spectra (FT-IR) confirmed an interaction between the hydroxyl groups of the phenolic compounds of the essential oil and the amine groups of the bioactive matrix, as shown by the peaks at wavenumbers 1639 cm−1 and 1558 cm−1. X-ray diffraction data suggested a lower crystallinity in the CHf due to the addition of GEO. Differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) analysis revealed that the CHf possessed high thermal stability, especially when different concentrations of GEO were added. The bioactive CHf showed distinct activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Streptococcus sp., Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp., and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, thus improving the antimicrobial activity to these films. The results provide a comprehensive insight into the importance of films with incorporated EOs as novel types of active food packaging. Antimicrobial food packaging is one of the most promising kinds of active packaging, and acts to reduce, inhibit, or retard any microorganism growth that could contaminate packaged food items.

Abstract
Hass avocadoes are one of the most popular fruits consumed worldwide because of their nutritional and nutraceutical content. Nevertheless, these fruits are susceptible to phytopathogen attacks that decrease fruit quality during the postharvest period. Herein we present the results of the in situ fungistatic activity of four hybrid films (FT1−FT4) manufactured with chitosan and different concentrations of the essential oil of thyme (TvEO). The films were evaluated as biodegradable materials to prevent fruit decay triggered by Clonostachys rosea which is considered an emergent phytopathogen of this crop. The in situ fungistatic strength, spectroscopic properties (FT-IR), optical features (transmittance/opacity), and consistency obtained by microscopic analysis (SEM), indicated that the films FT3 and FT4 possessed the best physicochemical properties to protect Hass avocadoes against the soft rot produced by C. rosea. Avocadoes treated with the films FT3 and FT4 significantly (p < 0.01) conserved fruit firmness and nutritional composition (protein, fat, fiber, and reducing sugars) as well as the nutraceutical content (oleic, palmitoleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids) of infected avocados for 21 days. Our results validate the potential use of the films FT3 and FT4 to prevent the soft rot caused by C. rosea and to improve the shelf life of Hass avocadoes.
