Abstract
Fruit seeds are leftovers from a variety of culinary sectors. They are generally unutilized and contribute greatly to global disposals. These seeds not only possess various nutritional attributes but also have many heath-beneficial properties. One way to make use of these seeds is to extract their bioactive components and create fortified food items. Nowadays, researchers are highly interested in creating innovative functional meals and food components from these unconventional resources. The main objective of this manuscript was to determine the usefulness of seed powder from 70 highly consumed fruits, including Apple, Apricot, Avocado, Banana, Blackberry, Blackcurrant, Blueberry, Cherry, Common plum, Cranberry, Gooseberry, Jackfruit, Jamun, Kiwi, Lemon, Mahua, Mango, Melon, Olive, Orange, and many more have been presented. The nutritional attributes, phytochemical composition, health advantages, nanotechnology applications, and toxicity of these fruit seeds have been fully depicted. This study also goes into in-depth detailing on creating useful food items out of these seeds, such as bakery goods, milk products, cereal-based goods, and meat products. It also identifies enzymes purified from these seeds along with their biochemical applications and any research openings in this area.

Abstract
One of the main issues that customers worldwide have is food adulteration. In commercial packages, freshness cannot always be determined visually. Here, we propose sensitive films for use in food packaging that could alter colour to indicate a change in freshness. Hybrid, multifunctional, and eco-friendly films were prepared from polyvinyl alcohol/palmyra root sprout (PVA/PRS), fused with soy protein isolate carbon dot (CD), Boswellia serrata (BS), and Clitoriaternatea anthocyanin (CTE). The films showed pH sensitivity, antioxidant, and UV barrier properties. By creating hydrogen bonds between PRS and the other fillers, adding these substances makes PVA less crystallized. These interactions were verified by infrared Fourier-transform analysis. When compared to PVA, PRS films had significantly lower moisture content and swelling ratios. The UV-blocking capabilities of the films were greatly improved by the addition of CD, BS, and CTE without compromising their mechanical, thermal, or water vapor barrier properties. The composite film PVA/PRS/CD/BS/CTE exhibited a maximum tensile strength value of 69.47 ± 1.49 MPa. The CT extract provides the film with superior antioxidant properties. The colorimetric films PVA/PRS/CTE and PVA/PRS/CD/BS/CTE showed distinct pH-responsive colour-change properties as well as good colour stability. The colorimetric films were used to test the freshness of sardine fish, and they revealed unique colour changes that indicated whether the fish sample was spoiled or not.

Development of smart colorimetric indicators for tracking kimchi freshness by loading aronia extract in agar, κ-carrageenan, and cellulose nanofiber films. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 270:132343. [PMID: 38750841 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132343] [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: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
Color indicator films incorporating aronia extract powder (AEP) and biopolymers like agar, carrageenan, and cellulose nanofiber (CNF) were developed to monitor kimchi freshness. AEP-containing films showed strong UV-barrier properties, and reduced light transmittance by 99.12 % for agar, 98.86 % for carrageenan, and 98.67 % for CNF-based films. All AEP-films exhibited high sensitivity to pH changes and vapor exposure to ammonia and acetic acid. Color change notably influenced by the polymer type, particularly evident with ammonia vapor exposure, especially in the AEP/carrageenan film. The chemical structure and thermal stability of the biopolymers remained unchanged after AEP-addition. Tensile strength increased by 24.2 % for AEP/CNF but decreased by 19.4 % for AEP/agar and 24.3 % for AEP/carrageenan films. AEP-containing films displayed strong antioxidant activity, with 99 % free radical scavenging in ABTS and ~ 80 % in DPPH assays. Alkalized AEP-indicator films were more effective in detecting color changes during kimchi packaging tests. Among the labels, alkalized AEP/agar film showed the most obvious color change from green-gray (fresh kimchi, pH 5.5, acidity 0.48 %) to pale brown (optimal fermentation, pH 4.6, acidity 0.70 %), and pale violet-brown (over-fermented, pH 3.80, acidity 1.35 %). Alkalized AEP-indicator films offer promising real-time detection of packed fermented foods like kimchi.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop a multifunctional active composite film to extend the shelf life of minced pork. The composite film was prepared by incorporating zinc-doped grapefruit peel-derived carbon quantum dots (Zn-GFP-CD) into a cellulose nanofiber (CNF) matrix. The resulting film significantly improved UV-blocking properties from 39.0 % to 85.7 % while maintaining the film transparency. Additionally, the CNF/Zn-GFP-CD5% composite film exhibits strong antioxidant activity with ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities of 99.8 % and 77.4 %, respectively. The composite film also showed excellent antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. When used in minced pork packaging, the composite films effectively inhibit bacterial growth, maintaining bacterial levels below 7 Log CFU/g after 15 days and sustaining a red color over a 21-day storage period. Additionally, a significant reduction in the lipid oxidation of the minced pork was observed. These CNF/Zn-GFP-CD composite films have a great potential for active food packaging applications to extend shelf life and maintain the visual quality of packaged meat.

Abstract
Biomass materials substituting for petroleum-based polymers occupy an important position in achieving sustainable development. Cellulose, a typical biomass material, stands out as the primary choice for producing eco-friendly packaging materials. However, it is still a challenge to efficiently utilize cellulose from waste biomass materials in practice. Herein, cellulose-based films were prepared by pretreating waste corn straw, separating straw husk, straw pith and straw leaf, and extracting cellulose through alkali and sodium chlorite treatment to improve its mechanical properties using the cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) method in this work. The prepared composite films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), X-ray diffraction instrument (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetric (TG) and mechanical properties. The results indicated that corn straw husk exhibited the highest cellulose content of 31.67 wt%, and obtained husk cellulose had the highest crystallinity of 52.5 %. Compared to corn straw, the crystallinity of husk cellulose, pith cellulose and leaf cellulose increased by 19.5 %, 16.4 % and 44.1 %, respectively. Husk cellulose/PVA composite films were the most thermally stable, with a maximum weight loss temperature of 346.8 °C. In addition, the husk cellulose/PVA composite film had the best tensile strength of 37 MPa. Meanwhile, the composite films had good UV shielding, low water vapor transmission rate and biodegradability. Therefore, this work provides a fine utilization route of waste corn straw, and as-prepared cellulose based films have potential application in eco-friendly packaging materials.

Development and characterization of starch/PVA antimicrobial active films with controlled release property by utilizing electrostatic interactions between nanocellulose and lauroyl arginate ethyl ester. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 261:129415. [PMID: 38224809 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129415] [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: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
The two nanocellulose (nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and carboxylated nanofibrillated cellulose (C-NFC)) could interact with lauryl arginine ethyl ester hydrochloride (LAE) through electrostatic bonding. The zeta potential (absolute value) of C-NFC (-27.80 mV) was higher than that of NFC (-10.07 mV). The starch/polyvinyl alcohol active films with controlled release property by utilizing electrostatic interactions between nanocellulose and LAE were prepared and their properties were investigated. For incorporation of the NFC or C-NFC, the cross-section of the films became slightly uneven and some fibrils were observed, the films exhibited an increase in strength, while the film water vapor and oxygen barrier properties decreased. The release of LAE from the films to food simulants (10 % ethanol) decelerated with increasing of NFC or C-NFC. These might be mainly attributed to the enhanced electrostatic interaction between NFC or C-NFC and LAE. It demonstrated that nanocellulose with higher negative charges would exhibit stronger electrostatic interaction with LAE, thus slowing the release of LAE. The film with highest C-NFC content exhibited smallest inhibition zone among LAE-containing films, which was related with its slowest release rate of LAE. It showed a great prospect to develop controlled release active packaging films by utilizing electrostatic interactions between substances.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles were prepared by loading Ag+ into biochar of waste barley distillers' grains shell by reduction with trisodium citrate, and this silver-loaded biochar was introduced into polyvinyl alcohol-chitosan. Various analysis with Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Thermogravimetric analysis, and water contact angle revealed that biochar-based silver nanoparticle was incorporated into the polyvinyl alcohol-chitosan film, the biochar-based silver nanoparticles-polyvinyl alcohol-chitosan (C-Ag-loaded PVA/CS) composite film had good thermostability and hydrophobicity. Through the analysis via disk diffusion method, the composite containing 3 % of biochar-based silver nanoparticles-polyvinyl alcohol-chitosan had high antibacterial activity (inhibition zone: 18 mm against E. coli and 15 mm against S. aureus), and the bacterial membrane permeability was measured, indicating that C-Ag-loaded PVA/CS composite film could destroy the cell membrane, release intracellular substances, and have high antioxidant activity. During the storage, the weight loss rate of the biochar-based silver nanoparticles-polyvinyl alcohol-chitosan plastic wrap group was 0.14 %, and the titratable acid content only decreased by 0.061 %, which had a good effect on extending the shelf life of blueberries. The C-Ag-loaded PVA/CS composite film could also delay deterioration of blueberries and prolong storage time. Overall, this composite film had potential in food packaging and extending food shelf-life aspects.

Abstract
Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) biocomposite films reinforced with cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and biologically active tannic acid (TA) were prepared. The influence of different concentrations of CNF and TA in the PVA polymer matrix was investigated in terms of mechanical properties, thermal properties and hydrophobicity improvement of the prepared films. The results showed that in all cases the addition of CNF and TA improved the values of tensile strength and elastic modulus. The PVA film with 10 % CNF exhibited a 30 % higher tensile strength, and the three-component PVA film with 2 % CNF and 10 % TA (P2C10T) exhibited a 40 % higher tensile strength compared to the neat PVA film. The thermal properties (Tg, Tonset) of the PVA biocomposite films were greatly improved, with a significant effect observed for the three-component PVA films. The Tg of the PVA film with 10 % CNF and 10 % TA was 87 °C, 12 °C higher than that of the neat PVA film. For three-component PVA biocomposites with 4 % and 6 % CNF and with all weight percentages of TA, the Tonset shifted to a higher temperature range by about 30 °C compared to the neat PVA film. The PVA film with 2 % CNF and 10 % TA exhibited about a 20° higher contact angle than the neat PVA film. Moreover, the addition of both fillers to the PVA matrix resulted in PVA biocomposites with lower water absorption. PVA film with 10 % TA absorbed about 90 % less water and PVA film with 10 % CNF and 10 % TA absorbed about 80 % less water than the neat PVA film after the films were soaked in water for one hour. The better properties of the composite films produced are due to hydrogen and ester bonds between the components of the composite, which was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. Antioxidant effective films were also obtained due to the biologically active TA to the PVA and PVA/CNF systems.

Abstract
This study focuses on the formulation of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based films with pH-sensitive properties and ultraviolet (UV) resistance by incorporating sodium lignosulfonate (LS) and varying concentrations of black rice anthocyanin extract (BRE) into PVA matrix. The films were characterized through Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), tensile test, water vapor permeability (WVP), and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy. The results indicated that BRE and LS effectively formed strong hydrogen bonds with PVA, leading to reduced film crystallinity, improved mechanical properties, and lowered WVP as the BRE content increased. The addition of LS and BRE improved the UV resistance of the films, and BRE imparted films with excellent pH-sensitive properties. Among the film variants, the PVA/LS/BRE film containing 1 wt% BRE exhibited excellent mechanical performance, boasting an elongation at a break of 360.66 % and a strength of 35.68 MPa. Additionally, soil pH visualization holds significant potential within agriculture. In this study, the PVA/LS/BRE film containing 2 wt% BRE exhibited minimum UV transparency (0.9 %) and displayed the most distinct color response across varying pH environments. Therefore, the PVA/LS/BRE film containing 2 wt% BRE excelled in both UV resistance and pH sensitivity, positioning it as the most suitable material for the development of agricultural films integrated with soil pH monitoring capabilities.

Abstract
Innovative active and pH-colorimetric composite films were fabricated from gelatin/poly(vinyl alcohol) (Gel/PVA) integrated with copper-based metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) and red cabbage anthocyanin (RCA). The incorporation of Cu-MOFs improved the tensile strength, water resistance, and UV shielding properties of the developed composite films. The addition of anthocyanins and 3 wt% Cu-MOFs endowed the polymer matrix with excellent antioxidant (100 % against ABTS and DPPH radicals) and antibacterial (against Gram-positive and Gram-negative foodborne pathogenic bacteria) functions. The fabricated composite films exhibited significant color change at alkaline conditions of pH 7-12 and a marked color change upon exposure to ammonia. The designed indicator films used for shrimp freshness tracking and a visual color change from pink (for fresh shrimp) to green (for spoiled shrimp) was observed during storage at 28 °C for 24 h. The potential applications of the engineered composite films were studied by shrimp packaging, and the quality parameters of packaged samples were monitored during storage. The synergistic effects of adding anthocyanins and MOF nanostructures works for better product freshness preservation and responds well to shrimp spoilage level, introducing novel active and intelligent packaging options for practical smart packaging applications.

Over the past five years, there has been growing interest in the design of modified cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) as nanoscale antimicrobial agents in potential end-user applications such as food preservation/packaging, additive manufacturing, biomedical and water purification. The interest of applying CNCs-based antimicrobial agents arise due to their abilities to be derived from renewable bioresources and their excellent physicochemical properties including rod-like morphologies, large specific surface area, low toxicity, biocompatibility, biodegradability and sustainability. The presence of ample surface hydroxyl groups further allows easy chemical surface modifications for the design of advanced functional CNCs-based antimicrobial materials. Furthermore, CNCs are used to support antimicrobial agents that are subjected to instability issues. The current review summarizes recent progress in CNC-inorganic hybrid-based materials (Ag and Zn nanoparticles, other metal/metal oxide) and CNC-organic hybrid-based materials (polymers, chitosan, simple organic molecules). It focuses on their design, syntheses and applications with a brief discussion on their probable modes of antimicrobial action whereby the roles of CNCs and/or the antimicrobial agents are highlighted.

Abstract
Five natural pigments including water-soluble [butterfly pea (BP), red cabbage (RC), and aronia (AR)] and alcohol-soluble [shikonin (SK) and alizarin (ALZ)] were extracted, characterized, and loaded onto cellulose for preparing pH-sensitive indicators. The indicators were tested their color response efficiency, gas sensitivity, response to lactic acid, color release, and antioxidant activity. Cellulose-water soluble indicators showed more obvious color changes than alcohol-soluble indicators in lactic acid solution and pH solutions (1-13). All cellulose-pigment indicators exhibited prominent sensitivity to ammonia compared to acidic vapor. Antioxidant activity and release behavior of the indicators were influenced by pigment type and simulants. Kimchi packaging test was carried out using original and alkalized indicators. The alkalized indicators were more effective in showing visible color changes during kimchi storage than the original indicators, and cellulose-ALZ displayed the most distinct color change from violet (fresh kimchi, pH 5.6, acidity 0.45 %) to gray (optimum fermented kimchi, pH 4.7, acidity 0.72 %), and to yellow (over fermented kimchi, pH 3.8, acidity 1.38 %) which followed by BP, AR, RC, SK respectively. The findings of the study suggest that the alkalization method could be used to show noticeable color changes in a narrow pH range for application with acidic foods.

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.

Abstract
Eco-friendly packaging material with intelligent colorimetric performance has been a requirement for food safety and quality. This work focused on a food packaging material from regenerated cellulose films that added the grape seed extract (GSE) and polyethylene glycol 200 (PEG). FTIR and SEM techniques were employed to prove the compatibility of GSE with cellulose matrix. The composite film showed an enhanced elongation at break (16.61 %) and tensile strength (33.09 MPa). The addition of PEG and GSE also improved the water contact angle of regenerated-cellulose film from 53.8° to 83.8°. Moreover, the composite films exhibited UV-blocking properties while maintaining adequate transparency. The GSE induced the regenerated films with a macroscopic change in color under different pH conditions. Furthermore, the loading of GSE slowed down the decomposition of strawberries and delayed the self-biodegradation compared with the control for more than 3 days and 18 days. The present study showed a regenerated cellulose film with acceptable mechanical and hydrophilia properties, pH-responsiveness, anti-decomposition, and delayed biodegradation performances, indicating a potential color sensor in food packaging.

Abstract
Recently, consumers have been increasingly inclined towards natural antimicrobials and antioxidants in food processing and packaging. Several bioactive compounds have originated from natural sources, and among them, grapefruit seed extract (GSE) is widely accepted and generally safe to use in food. GSE is a very commonly used antimicrobial in food; lately, it has also been found very effective as a coating material or in edible packaging films. A lot of recent work reports the use of GSE in food packaging applications to ensure food quality and safety; therefore, this work intended to provide an up-to-date review of GSE-based packaging. This review discusses GSE, its extraction methods, and their use in manufacturing food packaging film/coatings. Various physical and functional properties of GSE-added film were also discussed. This review also provides the food preservation application of GSE-incorporated film and coating. Lastly, the opportunities, challenges, and perspectives in the GSE-added packaging film/coating are also debated.
