[PMID: 37976874 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137977] [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: 06/26/2023] [Revised: 11/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
Films based on poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and cationic starch (CS) were combined with different percentages of sorbitol (S; 15.0, 22.5, and 30.0% w v-1) to assess the effect of plasticizer on the films. Spectroscopic analyses confirmed the interaction between them. However, micrographs indicated the formation of sorbitol crystals on the surface of the films, especially at higher sorbitol concentrations. The blends presented low water vapor transmission rate values, reaching (7.703 ± 0.000) g h-1 m-2 (PVA75CS25S15), and low solubility values for the films containing higher CS amounts. The lack of statistical differences in most parameters suggests that no significant gain comes from increasing the amount of sorbitol at percentages higher than 15%. As a coating, the blend PVA75CS25S15 successfully decreased the loss of moisture content in acerolas by 1.15 times (compared to the control), confirming the suitability of this matrix as a fruit coating.

Abstract
Fruit rotting at the postharvest stage severely limits their marketing supply chains and shelf-life. Thus, developing a green and cost-effective approach to extend the shelf-life of perishable foods is highly desired. In this study, inspired by the mussel-adhesion strategy, a multifunctional fruit coating material has been developed using a quaternized catechol-functionalized chitosan (CQ-CS) grafted with 2, 3-epoxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride and 3, 4-dihydroxy benzaldehyde. The as-prepared CQ-CS coating exhibited excellent mechanical properties, universal surface adhesion abilities, antimicrobial and antioxidant capacities without any potential toxicity effects. Using strawberry and banana as model fruits, we showed that the CQ-CS coating could effectively maintain the fruit's firmness and color, decrease the weight loss rate, and prevent microbial growth, thus finally extending their shelf- life when compared to uncoated samples, indicating the universal application of the as-prepared CQ-CS coating. These findings demonstrated that this novel conformal coating of CQ-CS has great potential for fruit preservation in the food industry.

Abstract
Cassava starch is one of the most available and cost-effective biopolymers. This work aimed to apply a bibliometric methodology to identify the most impactful scientific data on cassava starch and its residues for food packaging in the last ten years. As a result, an increasing interest in this subject has been observed, mainly in the past five years. Among the 85 selected scientific publications, Brazil and China have been leading the research on starch-based films, accounting for 39 % of the total. The International Journal of Biological Macromolecules was the main scientific source of information. Besides cassava starch, 41.18 % of these studies added other biopolymers, 5.88 % added synthetic polymers, and 4.71 % added a combination of both. Studies analyzed suggested that different modifications in starch can improve films' mechanical and barrier properties. In addition, 52.94 % of articles evaluated the film's bioactivity. Still, only 37.65 % assessed the performance of those films as food packaging, suggesting that more studies should be conducted on assessing the potential of these alternative packages. Future research should consider scale-up methods for film production, including cost analysis, assessment life cycle, and the impact on the safety and quality of a broader range of foods.

Abstract
Tetradenia riparia Hochsteter codd. (Lamiaceae) in its native African continent, is considered one of the most popular aromatic medicinal plants. In folk medicine it may be used as an infusion to treat respiratory problems, cough, headache, stomach pain, diarrhea, fever, malaria, and dengue; and in the form of compresses it is applied for the relief of headaches and toothaches. The species T. riparia has been researched for decades to isolate and identify chemical constituents present in extracts or essential oil obtained from the leaves, floral buds, or stems of this plant. The present study reviews the scientific literature on ethnomedicinal, phytochemical, and pharmacological aspects of T. riparia. We discuss issues related to the botanical and geographical description of the species, ethnobotanical uses, phytochemical studies on its essential oil and extracts, and biological activities of T. riparia. Several compounds have already been isolated from leaves, such as ibozol, 7α-hydroxyroileanone, 1',2'-dideacetylboronolide, 8(14),15-sandaracopimaradiene-7α,18-diol; 5,6-dihydro-α-pyrone and α-pyrone. Terpenes predominated in the essential oil, comprising monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, diterpenes, hydrocarbons, and oxygenates. Most phytocompounds were isolated from the leaves and flower buds, namely fenchone, 14-hydroxy-9-epi (E)-caryophyllene, 9β, 13β-epoxy-7-abietene, and 6,7-dehydroroileanone. These compounds provide the species a high pharmacological potential, with antimicrobial, antioxidant, antitumor, analgesic, anti-leishmania, anti-tuberculosis, and anti-parasitic activities. Therefore, this species is a promising herbal medicine.

Bioassay-guided isolation of antibacterial compounds from the leaves of Tetradenia riparia with potential bactericidal effects on food-borne pathogens. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2021; 273:113956. [PMID: 33636319 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2021.113956] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2020] [Revised: 02/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/16/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Tetradenia riparia (commonly known as ginger bush) is frequently used in traditional African medicine to treat foodborne infections including diarrhoea, gastroenteritis, and stomach ache. AIM OF THE STUDY The present study aims to identify in Tetradenia riparia the compounds active against foodborne pathogens. MATERIALS AND METHODS Dried Tetradenia riparia leaf powder was consecutively extracted with hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol and water. The hexane extract was counter-extracted with methanol:water (9:1), and after evaporation of the methanol, this phase was extracted with dichloromethane. The water extract was counter-extracted with butanol. All these fractions were tested against a panel of foodborne bacterial pathogens. A bioassay-guided purification was performed to isolate antimicrobial compounds using Staphylococcus aureus as a target organism. Further, antibiofilm activity was evaluated on S. aureus USA 300. RESULTS The dichloromethane fraction and ethyl acetate extract were the most potent, and therefore subjected to silica gel chromatography. From the dichloromethane fraction, one active compound was crystalized and identified using NMR as 8(14),15-sandaracopimaradiene-7alpha, 18-diol (compound 1). Two active compounds were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract: deacetylumuravumbolide (compound 2) and umuravumbolide (compound 3). Using a microdilution method, their antimicrobial activity was tested against eight foodborne bacterial pathogens: Shigella sonnei, S. flexneri, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica, Escherichia coli, Micrococcus luteus, S. aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, and Listeria innocua. Compound 1 had the strongest activity (IC50 ranging from 11.2 to 212.5 μg/mL), and compounds 2 and 3 showed moderate activity (IC50 from 212.9 to 637.7 μg/mL and from 176.1 to 521.4 μg/mL, respectively). Interestingly, 8(14),15-sandaracopimaradiene-7alpha, 18-diol is bactericidal, and also showed good antibiofilm activity with BIC50 (8.8 ± 1.5 μg/mL) slightly lower than for planktonic cells (11.4 ± 2.8 μg/mL). CONCLUSIONS These results support the traditional use of this plant to conserve foodstuffs and to treat gastrointestinal ailments, and open perspectives for its use in the prevention and treatment of foodborne diseases.

Abstract
The use of industrial waste as a material for the development of natural innovative and active packaging is economically and environmentally appealing. The aim of this study was to develop and characterize active gelatin films incorporating rapeseed oil industry waste. Water (RM-WE) and methanolic (RM-MWE) extracts of rapeseed meal (RM) were used as active agents in film formulations. The active films were produced by a casting technique. The physicochemical, mechanical, optical, morphological, radical scavenging, and antibacterial properties of the films were analyzed. The addition of RM-WE and RM-MWE in the concentrations range between 4 and 12% promoted an increase of Young's modulus (YM) and radical scavenging properties of films investigated by the direct QUick, Easy, New, CHEap and Reproducible procedure using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (QUENCHERDPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6- sulfonic acid) (QUENCHERABTS) radicals. The antibacterial properties of films were examined against five bacterial strains: E. coli, S. enterica, M. luteus, L. monocytogenes, and S. aureus. Additionally, color and opacity of the control and fortified films differed significantly. The gelatin films with RM extracts are resistant to the microbial spoilage and could be used to produce active packaging for food that is vulnerable to rancidity effects.
