Abstract
Food packaging is an essential part of food transportation, storage and preservation. Biodegradable biopolymers are a significant direction for the future development of food packaging materials. As a natural biological polysaccharide, chitosan has been widely concerned by researchers in the field of food packaging due to its excellent film-forming property, good antibacterial property and designability. Thus, the application research of chitosan-based food packaging films, coatings and aerogels has been greatly developed. In this review, recent advances on chitosan-based food packaging materials are summarized. Firstly, the development background of chitosan-based packaging materials was described, and then chitosan itself was introduced. In addition, the design, preparation and applications of films, coatings and aerogels in chitosan-based packaging for food preservation were discussed, and the advantages and disadvantages of each research in the development of chitosan-based packaging materials were analyzed. Finally, the application prospects, challenges and suggestions for solving the problems of chitosan-based packaging are summarized and prospected.

The Effects of Encapsulation on the In Vitro Anti-Clostridial Activity of Olive Mill Wastewater Polyphenolic Extracts: A Promising Strategy to Limit Microbial Growth in Food Systems. Molecules 2024; 29:1441. [PMID: 38611721 PMCID: PMC11012792 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29071441] [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: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Despite the technologies applied to food production, microbial contamination and chemical deterioration are still matters of great concern. In order to limit these phenomena, new natural approaches should be applied. In this context, the present study aimed to assess the antioxidant and anti-Clostridial effects of two different polyphenolic extracts derived from olive mill vegetation water, one liquid (LE) and one encapsulated (EE). The extracts have been preliminary characterized using Liquid Chromatography Quadrupole Time-Of Flight spectrometry. The Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity method was used to determine the antioxidant capacity, registering a higher value for EE compared to that for LE (3256 ± 85 and 2446 ± 13 µgTE/g, respectively). The antibacterial activity against C. perfringens, C. botulinum and C. difficile was studied by the agar well diffusion method, MIC and MBC determination and a time-kill test. The results confirm that EE and LE are able to limit microbial growth, albeit with minor effects when the phenolic compounds are encapsulated. Further studies are needed to evaluate the possible application of these extracts in food systems.

Abstract
Chitosan packaging has been widely studied for food preservation, the application of which is expanded by the incorporation of tea polyphenols. This paper reviews the influence of tea polyphenols incorporation on chitosan-based packaging from the perspectives of physicochemical properties, bioactivity used for food preservation, and nutritional value. The physicochemical properties included optical properties, mechanical properties, water solubility, moisture content, and water vapor barrier property, concluding that the addition of tea polyphenols improved the opacity, water solubility, and water vapor barrier property of chitosan packaging, and the mechanical properties and water content were decreased. The bioactivity used for food preservation, that is antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, is enhanced by tea polyphenols, improving the preservation of food like meat, fruits, and vegetables. In the future, efforts will be needed to improve the mechanical properties of composite film and adjust the formula of tea polyphenols/chitosan composite film to apply to different foods. Besides, the identification and development of high nutritional value tea polyphenol/chitosan composite film is a valuable but challenging task. This review is expected to scientifically guide the application of tea polyphenols in chitosan packaging.

Development and characterization of antioxidant bilayer film based on poly lactic acid-bitter vetch (Vicia ervilia) seed protein incorporated with Pistacia terebinthus extract for active food packaging. Curr Res Food Sci 2023; 7:100613. [PMID: 37860146 PMCID: PMC10582362 DOI: 10.1016/j.crfs.2023.100613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023] Open
Abstract
This study focuses on designing an active bilayer food package film based on polylactic acid (PLA) and bitter vetch seed protein incorporated with Pistacia terebinthus extract (PTE). The effect of PTE on the physicochemical, barrier, structural, mechanical, and antioxidant properties of the active film was determined. Moisture content, water solubility, and water vapor permeability (WVP) of the active films indicated that the addition of PTE increased its suitability for food packaging. FE-SEM micrographs illustrated that the resulting films had a smooth and dense surface, describing a continuous network of protein molecules within the film structure. FTIR analysis displayed the physical interaction between PTE and the film polymer. XRD revealed an increase in the crystallinity of the active films. The resulting active film had a low migration rate (<7%) of phenolic compounds into fatty food simulant. Notably, the addition of PTE significantly (P ≤ 0.05) decreased the tensile strength and Young's modulus (from 15.13 and 315.98 MPa to 14.07 and 254.07 MPa, respectively). Concurrently, there was an increase in the elongation at break of the active films (from 23.19 to 75.60%), indicating higher flexibility compared to control films. Additionally, the incorporation of PTE improved the thermal properties of active films. The antioxidant capacity of the designed films was measured based on their DPPH radical scavenging activity, revealing that the antioxidant capacity of the control film increased from 44.65% to 59.72% in the active film containing 15% PTE. In conclusion, the prepared bilayer film can effectively be used as an active food package for sensitive foods to oxidation.

Abstract
The rising consumer demand for safer, healthier, and fresher-like food has led to the emergence of new concepts in food packaging. In addition, the growing concern about environmental issues has increased the search for materials derived from non-petroleum sources and biodegradable options. Thus, active films based on biopolymers loaded with natural active compounds have great potential to be used as food packaging. However, several lipophilic active compounds are difficult to incorporate into aqueous film-forming solutions based on polysaccharides or proteins, and the hydrophilic active compounds require protection against oxidation. One way to incorporate these active compounds into film matrices is to encapsulate them in emulsions, such as microemulsions, nanoemulsions, Pickering emulsions, or double emulsions. However, emulsion characteristics can influence the properties of active films, such as mechanical, barrier, and optical properties. This review addresses the advantages of using emulsions to encapsulate active compounds before their incorporation into biopolymeric matrices, the main characteristics of these emulsions (emulsion type, droplet size, and emulsifier nature), and their influence on active film properties. Furthermore, we review the recent applications of the emulsion-charged active films in food systems.

Abstract
This research aims to produce an antioxidant and biodegradable polysaccharide film by using macroalgae agar and sulfated polysaccharide. Agar and sulfated polysaccharide (fucoidan) were extracted from Gracilaria corticata and Sargassum angustifolium macroalgae. Five treatments were conducted: (A) agar film (1%, W:V), (C) chitosan film (1%, W:V + 1% acetic acid), (AC) agar:chitosan composite (50:50, V:V), (ACF) AC film with fucoidan (0.5%, W:V), and (ACFA) ACF film with citric acid (30% of the dry weight of film) as a cross-linking agent. Then, 0.75% (V:V) of glycerol was added to all films. The physical, mechanical, antioxidant, color variations, microstructure (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy were investigated. Based on the results, modifying the agar film with chitosan improved the mechanical strength, humidity, and solubility in the AC composite film (p < .05). Further, adding sulfated polysaccharide and citric acid cross-linking agent to the agar-chitosan composite led to a significant decrease in solubility, humidity, and permeability to water vapor in ACFA films (p < .05), indicating strong cross-linking and reduction in film pores based on the SEM pictures and FTIR results. However, the physical and mechanical properties of the agar-based film obtained from Gracilaria algae can be improved by adding chitosan and citric acid cross-linking agent, and the addition of fucoidan obtained from Sargassum algae has improved its antioxidant properties. This biodegradable film can be a good candidate for preserving perishable products.

Chitosan-based packaging films with an integrated antimicrobial peptide: Characterization, in vitro release and application to fresh pork preservation. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 231:123209.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) films were developed incorporating peptide HX-12C. The films were studied to determine their microstructures, physical properties, release properties of peptide HX-12C and functional properties. The results indicated that there may be hydrogen bonding interactions between CS and peptide HX-12C, thereby creating a homogeneous internal microstructure and lower crystallinity (10.8-12.8 %). Compared with CS film, CS-HX-12C films displayed lower light transmission, MC (20.8-19.9 %), WVP (8.82-8.59 × 10-11·g·m-1·s-1·Pa-1), OTR (0.015-0.037 cc/(m2.day)) and higher WS (15.7-32.4 %) values. Moreover, controlled-release experiments showed that pH, ionic strength and temperature could all significantly affect the release of peptide HX-12C from the films. Finally, the increase of pH value and TVC and lipid oxidation of fresh pork were delayed due to the treatment with CS-2%HX-12C film. However, incorporating peptide HX-12C into CS films did not improve the mechanical properties of the films and their effects against protein oxidation. Our results suggest that the CS-based antimicrobial packaging films integrated with peptide HX-12C exhibit the potential for fresh pork preservation.

Abstract
Recently, the development of materials based on natural polymers have been observed. This is the result of increasing environmental degradation, as well as increased awareness and consumer expectations. Many industries, especially the packaging industry, face challenges resulting from legal regulations. Chitin is the most common biopolymer right after cellulose and is used to produce chitosan. Due to the properties of chitosan, such as non-toxicity, biocompatibility, as well as antimicrobial properties, chitosan-based materials are used in many industries. Many studies have been conducted to determine the suitability of chitosan materials as food packaging, and their advantages and limitations have been identified. Thanks to the possibility of modifying the chitosan matrix by using natural additives, it is possible to strengthen the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of chitosan films, which means that, in the near future, chitosan-based materials will be a more environmentally friendly alternative to the plastic packaging used so far. The article presents literature data on the most commonly used natural additives, such as essential oils, plant extracts, or polysaccharides, and their effects on antimicrobial, antioxidant, mechanical, barrier, and optical properties. The application of chitosan as a natural biopolymer in food packaging extends the shelf-life of various food products while simultaneously reducing the use of synthetic plastics, which in turn will have a positive impact on the natural environment. However, further research on chitosan and its combinations with various materials is still needed to extent the application of chitosan in food packaging and bring its application to industrial levels.

Abstract
The widely use of petroleum-based plastics causes serious environmental pollution and oil resource shortage. In this work, biodegradable films were prepared based on gallic acid (GA)-induced Chinese yam starch (YS) and chitosan (CS). The fresh-keeping effect of biodegradable films on the pork meat preservation were investigated. The prepared GA/YS/CS biodegradable films exhibited thinner thickness and better light transmittance, because CS effectively decreased the viscosity of film-forming solution and weaken its internal link structure. The SEM results and mechanical results revealed that the YS, GA, and CS had a good compatibility, GA modification and adding CS markedly improved the tensile strength of YS-based film, because the interaction between CS and starch molecular was facilitate owing to the NH3+ of CS tended to form hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl group of starch. Sensory analysis results suggested that GA/YS/CS films can effectively improve the quality of pork during storage compared to the package of polyethylene film. In summary, the prepared GA/YS/CS film in this work had practical application potential in pork preservation due to its excellent mechanical, antibacterial, oxidation resistance properties, and the development and application of biodegradable starch film can greatly reduce the increasingly serious environmental pollution pressure.

[PMID: 36613241 PMCID: PMC9818252 DOI: 10.3390/foods12010026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effects of furcellaran−gelatine (FUR/GEL) coatings incorporated with herb extracts on the quality retention of carp fish during refrigeration. Nutmeg, rosemary, thyme, milfoil, marjoram, parsley, turmeric, basil and ginger were subjected to water and ethanol extraction methods (10% concentration of herbs). The water extractions of the rosemary and thyme (5%) were used for the further development of coatings due to their high 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH: 85.49 and 83.28%) and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power Assay values (FRAP: 0.46 and 0.56 mM/L) (p < 0.05), respectively. A new, ready-to-cook product with the coatings (carp fillets) was evaluated regarding quality in terms of colour parameters, texture profile, water activity, Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARSs) and sensory analyses during 12 days of storage at 4 °C. The results show that the colour of the carp fillets treated with the rosemary and thyme extracts became slightly darker and had a propensity towards redness and yellowness. In contrast to the control group, the carp fillets stored in the coatings with the rosemary extract effectively slowed the lipid oxidation processes. Therefore, the innovative coatings produced from carp processing waste may have high potential as components in convenience food products and could extend the shelf-life of carp fillets during refrigerated storage. However, further research is needed to assess the microbiological stability of the obtained food products.

Development and Application of Dual-Sensors Label in Combination with Active Chitosan-Based Coating Incorporating Yarrow Essential Oil for Freshness Monitoring and Shelf-Life Extension of Chicken Fillet. Foods 2022; 11:foods11213533. [PMID: 36360146 PMCID: PMC9658966 DOI: 10.3390/foods11213533] [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: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 10/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed for the application of active chitosan coating incorporating yarrow essential oil (YEO) together with the development of an on-package sensor label based on bromocresol purple (BCP) and methyl red (MR) for shelf-life extension and freshness monitoring of chicken breast fillet. Physiochemical and microbiological attributes of chicken meat coated with sole chitosan, YEO, and chitosan + YEO were compared with those of uncoated (control) samples. Chitosan + YEO coated chicken meat stayed fresh with no significant changes (p > 0.05) in pH (5.42−5.56), TVB-N (12.55−15.36 mg N/100 g), TBARs (0.35−0.40 mg MDA/kg) and total aerobic psycrotrophic bacteria (3.97−4.65 log CFU/g) in days 1−15. There was no response of the dual-sensors label toward the variation in chemical and microbiological indicators of chicken meat coated with chitosan + YEO. However, either uncoated, sole chitosan, or sole YEO treatments indicated a three-stage freshness status with the fresh stage belonged to a period earlier than day 7 (with no distinct color change in both sensor labels); the semi-fresh stage corresponded to storage days between 7−9, wherein a gradual color change appeared (MR from pink to orange, BCP from yellow to light purple); and the spoiled stage occurred in day 9 onward with a drastic color change (MR from orange to light yellow, BCP from light purple to deep purple). In general, the dual-sensors successfully responded to the variation of chemical and microbiological indicators and visual color of uncoated samples during storage time. Based on the obtained results, the application of chitosan + YEO coating efficiently prolonged the freshness of chicken breast meat, where on-package dual-sensors systems were able to detect the freshness stages of meat samples during storage time.

Abstract
Chitosan films containing aqueous extracts of sage and rosemary were prepared as a potential food coating material with antioxidant and antibacterial properties. The effect of adding extracts at different concentrations on the mechanical, physical, and optical properties of the films was investigated. The addition of the extracts significantly increased Young's modulus values of the films compared to the chitosan film, and a significant decrease was observed in the swelling percentage and water vapor permeability of the films. Since all the prepared films were ionically cross-linked, the increase in water solubility of the films with the addition of the extract was at a low level. The release of rosmarinic acid, which is found in significant amounts in both plants, from the films was monitored by the capillary electrophoresis. The antioxidant properties imparted to the films by the addition of plant extracts were determined by DPPH and FRAP methods. The addition of plant extracts increased the antimicrobial property of chitosan films against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Films containing sage and rosemary extracts showed potential for use as food coating materials.

Abstract
In this work, chitosan (CS) emulsion films were prepared with grapefruit essential oil (GEO) Pickering emulsions (OGEOs) stabilized by amphiphilic octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) konjac glucomannan (OSA-KGM) network. The droplet size of emulsion was regulated by altering oil content in OGEOs (10 %, 20 %, 30 % and 40 %, w/w). The structural and physicochemical properties of CS films with tunable emulsion droplets (OGEOs) were investigated. The droplet size of OGEOs increased with the increasing content of GEO. FT-IR revealed that the formation of CS-OGEOs films was attributed to hydrogen bonding. CS-OGEOs films with large droplets presented smoother surface, enhanced water resistance, UV-shielding property, mechanical properties, but increased water vapor permeability (WVP) compared with CS-OGEOs films with small droplets. In addition, CS-OGEOs films with large droplets also presented compact film structure, controlled release of GEO, high efficiency of DPPH free radical scavenging and antibacterial activity. To sum up, incorporation of emulsion droplets was a good strategy for improving the structural and physicochemical properties of CS films.

Abstract
Currently, edible films have been increasingly explored to solve muscle food spoilage during storage, especially through the incorporation of plant extracts to develop edible packaging materials. Natural polymers matrices with plant extracts are befitting for fabricating edible films by casting methods. In the films system, the structure and physicochemical properties were strengthened via chemical interactions between active molecules in plant extracts and the reactive groups in the polymer chain. The antibacterial and antioxidant properties were dramatically reinforced through both physical and chemical actions of the plant extracts. Additionally, edible films imbedded with color-rich plant extracts could be considered as potential sensitive indicators to monitor the spoilage degree of muscle foods in response to change in gas or temperature. Furthermore, these films could increase sensory acceptability, improve quality and prolong the shelf life of muscle foods. In this article, the types, preparation methods and reinforcing properties of the edible films with plant extracts were discussed. Also, the applications of these films were summarized on quality maintenance and shelf-life extension and intelligent monitoring in muscle foods. Finally, a novel technology for film preparation achieving high-stability and sustained release of active compounds will become an underlying trend for application in muscle food packaging.

Abstract
The concept of sustainability and the substitution of non-biodegradable packaging using biodegradable packaging has attracted gigantic interest. The objective of the present study was to revalorize the biowaste "de-oiled green algae biomass (DAB)" of Dunaliella tertiolecta using a green approach and the development of biodegradable chitosan (CS)-based edible active biocomposite films and coatings for prolonging the shelf life of fresh produce. Ultrasound-assisted green extraction was conducted using food-grade solvent ethanol for obtaining the bio-actives, namely "crude algae ethanolic extract (CAEE)" from DAB. The edible films (CS/CAEE) and coating solutions were developed by incorporating CAEE with varying concentrations (0 to 28%). The CAEE was subjected to MALDI-TOF-MS, NMR, and other biochemical analyses, and was found to be rich in DPPH antioxidant activity (∼40%). The CS/CAEE films were fabricated using a solvent casting method and characterized by several biochemical and physicochemical (FESEM, TGA, FTIR, XRD, WVP, UTM, and rheological) characterization techniques. The addition of CAEE into the CS matrix reduced the maximum film transparency (∼20%), water vapor permeability (∼60%); improved the crystallinity (∼24%), tensile strength (∼25%), and antioxidant activity (∼27%); and exhibited UV-Vis blocking properties as compared to the control film. Besides, the developed coating solutions and CAEE showed biocompatibility with BHK-21 fibroblast cells and antimicrobial activity against common food pathogens. The developed coating solution was applied on green chilli using a dipping method and stored at ambient temperature (25 ± 2 °C, 50-70 % RH) for 10 days. The shelf life of chillies was extended without altering the quality as compared to uncoated green chillies. Therefore, the formulated coating could be applicable for prolonging the shelf life of fresh produce.

Abstract
The levan/pullulan/chitosan edible films, enriched with ε-polylysine, as an antimicrobial agent, were successfully fabricated by the casting method, and their applicability for food packaging was systematically evaluated by several analytical techniques. An increase in the levan/pullulan ratios (ranged from 0:6 to 3:3) in the films showed a decreased water solubility (from 72.21% to 26.64%) and oxygen permeability (from 48.75 × 10-2 g·mm·m-2·d-1·kPa-1 to 4.45 × 10-2 g·mm·m-2·d-1·kPa-1), and increased elongation at break (from 10.92% to 46.61%). All the films showed a strong inhibitory effect on two typical food-borne pathogens and good biodegradability in the soil. These films were employed as edible coatings on strawberries, and the storage stability was investigated by means of physical and biochemical parameters. Compared to control, the weight loss, firmness, and total soluble solids of the coated strawberries showed a downward trend. Overall, these findings suggest that the developed edible films could be a potential approach for sustainable active food packaging.

Abstract
To prolong the storage period of blueberry and improve its shelf-life quality, an edible coating based on chitosan was developed, and different contents of pectin were added to the coating. In this study, Jerusalem artichoke residue was used as a source of pectin, which is a byproduct of the processing of inulin. The extracted pectin has a low cost and high quality, which is very suitable for the preservation of coating. The coating was prepared and the chemical properties of the coating were characterized by SEM, XRD, TG, and FTIR. The barrier properties of the coating were analyzed by thickness, water content, solubility, and water vapor permeability. The results showed that the pectin coating exhibited excellent performance in blueberry preservation. Following 16 days of storage, the decay and weight loss rates of blueberry treated with 0.2% pectin coating decreased by 33 and 22%, respectively. Moreover, the organic acid consumption of the coated blueberry slowed and the anthocyanins were better preserved. As a low-cost, safe, and efficient technology, the pectin chitosan composite coating has significant potential in the berries preservation industry.

Abstract
Although plasma, especially atmospheric plasma generated by corona discharge, has been proven to be effective in sterilization and food preservation, its disinfection mechanism on chilled pork is poorly understood. In this research, the bactericidal and preservation effect of corona discharge plasma (CDP) was investigated. The maximum bactericidal effect was found after 20 kV 4 kHz CDP treatment, with 2.77 log (colony-forming unit [CFU]/g), 2.41 log (CFU/g), and 1.36 log (CFU/g) reduction for Pantoea agglomerans, Serratia liquefaciens, and Kurthia zopfii, respectively, after 10 min of exposure. The efficiency of microbial inactivation was attributed to the increase of ozone, hydrogen peroxide and morphological changes. It was observed that the microbial level and total volatile binding nitrogen value of CDP-treated chilled pork samples were suppressed during storage, whereas the increase of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances value and the changes of color were still worthy of attention. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of pulsed CDP on the inactivation of spoilage microorganism inoculated on the surface of fresh pork. The prospect of this technology in meat preservation industry was also investigated.

Abstract
The study aimed to obtain chitosan composite films with gratifying physical and functional properties. First, we developed a Pickering emulsion containing clove essential oil (CEO)-loaded nanoparticles with 1:2 (w/w) zein and sodium caseinate (NaCas). We found that in this ratio, the CEO-loaded zein-NaCas (C/ZN) nanoparticles had smaller particle size, proper polydispersity index (PDI) and zeta potential as well as higher encapsulation efficiency. Then, the acquired C/ZN nanoparticles were incorporated into chitosan film at three levels (0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6%), reducing the water vapor permeability to 4.62 × 10-6 g·s-1·m-1·Pa. Also, the tensile strength and break elongation of chitosan films were increased, reaching 38.67 MPa and 1.56%, respectively. The infrared spectroscopy verified that the intermolecular hydrogen bonds exist between chitosan and C/ZN nanoparticles. The chitosan composite films showed a controlled-release property of CEO in 96 h. Finally, the chitosan composite films showed the improved antibacterial property by creating larger inhibition zones against Escherichia coli (3.29 mm) and Staphylococcus aureus (6.15 mm). In general, we improved the water resistance, light blocking, mechanical strength, controlled-release and antibacterial properties of chitosan film with C/ZN nanoparticles. The current edible antibacterial films have great potential on applications for food preservation and food delivery system.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to develop the magnolol-chitosan films and study the positive effect of the combination of magnolol and chitosan. The addition of magnolol made the magnolol-chitosan films exhibit higher density (1.06-1.87 g/cm3), but the relatively lower water vapor permeability (12.06-7.36 × 10-11·g·m-1·s-1·Pa-1) and water content (16.10-10.64%). The dense and smooth surface and cross-section of magnolol-chitosan films were observed by environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) images. The interaction of magnolol and chitosan was observed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). After the addition of magnolol, the antioxidant capacity of magnolol-chitosan films was increased from 18.99 to 82.00%, the growth of P. aeruginosa was inhibited and the inhibition percentage of biofilm formation was increased from 30.89 to 86.04%. We further verified that the application of magnolol-chitosan films on chilled pork significantly reduced the increases in pH value, inhibited the growth of microorganisms and extended the shelf life. Results suggest that magnolol had a positive effect on magnolol-chitosan films and could be effectively applied to pork preservation.

Abstract
Being credited with the most extensively studied polysaccharide polymer and promising candidate for versatile applications, chitosan has proved to be a standalone material with loads of diversified properties in various structural forms such as blends and composites. Considering the abundance of this biopolymer and its non-toxic nature, exploiting chitosan offers two-folded benefits – environment friendliness and fabrication as per the need. Alkaline deacetylation of chitin produces chitosan as a polymer that can be tuned to a great extent as per the requirement by altering the degree of deacetylation (DDA) and molecular weight (MW). This biopolymer has been widely investigated for potential application in the food and biomedical fields due to its antimicrobial and antibacterial properties. Chitosan based composite films incorporated with different natural extracts have shown significant enhancement in the physical and biological activities as reported by different studies. The current study reviews recent developments and investigations of chitosan based biocomposite films incorporated with different natural extracts emphasizing on the improvement of physical and biological properties and its applications.

Abstract
β-Acids are natural antibacterial and antioxidant ingredients, obtained from supercritical CO2 hop extract. In this study, β-acids/chitosan complex films were prepared using the casting method. Complex films were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). Structure analysis revealed that β-acids can be successfully combined with the chitosan matrix. Mechanical tests demonstrated that the tensile strength of the films showed a significant upward trend (1.9 MPa to 9.6 MPa) with increase in β-acids content (0.1%-0.3%). Interestingly, the chitosan-based films showed excellent UV barrier capability below 400 nm. The release of β-acids from the film followed Fickian diffusion (n < 0.45). In addition, the complex films inhibited the growth of five food-borne pathogens (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Salmonella enteritidis and Listeria monocytogenes). This study highlights the promising nature of composite film as a desirable alternative for active packaging.

Abstract
Hydroxycinnamic acids are one category of bioactive phenolic acids that are widely distributed in plants. In this study, chitosan (CS) was functionalized with three kinds of hydroxycinnamic acids (p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid and ferulic acid) through the carbodiimide-mediated grafting method. The obtained hydroxycinnamic-acid-grafted CSs (hydroxycinnamic acid-g-CSs) were further fabricated into food packaging films through solvent casting. For the first time, the functionalities of the different hydroxycinnamic acid-g-CS films were compared. Results showed the grafting ratio of p-coumaric acid-g-CS, caffeic acid-g-CS and ferulic acid-g-CS was 73.68, 129.42 and 91.75 mg/g, respectively. Instrumental analyses confirmed hydroxycinnamic acids conjugated with CS through amide and ester bonds. The functionalization of CS film with hydroxycinnamic acids produced a more compact microstructure and higher UV light barrier ability, mechanical strength, water vapor barrier ability, thermal stability and antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Among the different hydroxycinnamic acid-g-CS films, caffeic acid-g-CS film presented the strongest barrier, mechanical, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Moreover, caffeic acid-g-CS film packaging effectively extended the shelf life of pork to 10 days at 4 °C. Our results suggest caffeic acid-g-CS film can be used in the active food packaging field.

Abstract
The present study was conducted to assess the impact of chitosan coating (1%) containing Artemisia fragrans essential oil (500, 1000, and 1500 ppm) as antioxidant and antimicrobial agent on the quality properties and shelf life of chicken fillets during refrigerated storage. After packaging meat samples, physicochemical, microbiological, and organoleptic attributes were evaluated at 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 days at 4 °C. The results revealed that applied chitosan (CH) coating in combination with Artemisia fragrans essential oils (AFEOs) had no significant (p < 0.05) effects on proximate composition among treatments. The results showed that the incorporation of AFEOs into CH coating significantly reduced (p < 0.05) pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), especially for 1% CH coating + 1500 ppm AFEOs, with values at the end of storage of 5.58, 1.61, and 2.53, respectively. The coated samples also displayed higher phenolic compounds than those obtained by uncoated samples. Coated chicken meat had, significantly (p < 0.05), the highest inhibitory effects against microbial growth. The counts of TVC (total viable counts), coliforms, molds, and yeasts were significantly lower (p < 0.05) in 1% CH coating + 1500 ppm AFEOs fillets (5.32, 3.87, and 4.27 Log CFU/g, respectively) at day 12. Organoleptic attributes of coated samples also showed the highest overall acceptability scores than uncoated ones. Therefore, the incorporation of AFEOs into CH coating could be effectively used for improving stability and shelf life of chicken fillets during refrigerated storage.

Abstract
Chitosan is obtained from chitin and considered to be one of the most abundant natural polysaccharides. Due to its functional activity, chitosan has received intense and growing interest in terms of applications for food preservation over the last half-century. Compared with earlier studies, recent research has increasingly focused on the exploration of preservation mechanism as well as the targeted inhibition with higher efficiency, which is fueled by availability of more active composite ingredients and integration of more technologies, and gradually perceived as "chitosan-based biofilm preservation." In this Review, we comprehensively summarize the potential antimicrobial mechanisms or hypotheses of chitosan and its widely compounded ingredients, as well as their impacts on endogenous enzymes, oxidation and/or gas barriers. The strategies used for enhancing active function of the film-forming system and subsequent film fabrication processes including direct coating, bioactive packaging film and layer-by-layer assembly are introduced. Finally, future development of chitosan-based bioactive film is also proposed to broaden its application boundaries. Generally, our goal is that this Review is easily accessible and instructive for whose new to the field, as well as hope to advance to the filed forward.

Abstract
Chitosan/peptide films were prepared by incorporating peptides (0.4%, w/v) from soy, corn and caseins into chitosan films. The presence of peptides significantly affected the physical, antibacterial and antioxidative properties of chitosan films. Among these films, those containing corn peptide showed the best water vapor barrier properties, and the tensile strength and elongation at break increased to 24.80 Mpa and 23.94%, respectively. Characterization of surface hydrophobicity and thermal stability suggested the strongest intermolecular interactions between corn peptides and chitosan. Moreover, films containing casein peptides showed the highest antibacterial activity and radical scavenging activity. The DPPH scavenging rate of films containing casein peptides reached 46.11%, and ABTS scavenging rate reached 66.79%. These results indicate the chitosan/peptide films may be promising food packaging materials.

Abstract
Shrimps are highly valuable and perishable foodstuff that could be rapidly spoiled. Chitosan (Cht) was extracted and transformed into nanoparticles (NPs) via ionic gelation and fortified with cloves (Syzygium aromaticum) buds extract (CLE) for usage as antimicrobial composites against food-borne bacterial pathogens (Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, and Staphylococcus aureus) and as edible coating (EC) for shrimp (Fenneropenaeus indicus) biopreservation throughout refrigerated storage. The synthesized CLE/Cht-NPs were electrostatically cross-linked and appeared with spherical shapes and homogenized distribution, with 159.4 nm mean size diameter and positive charge of 17.4 mV. The entire agents (Cht-NPs, CLE, and CLE/Cht-NPs) exhibited remarkable antibacterial activities toward all food-borne pathogens; CLE/Cht-NPs were significantly the most forceful. The scanning micrographs of treated S. typhimurium with CLE/Cht-NPs displayed NPs ability to attach and destroy bacterial cells. The ECs-treated shrimps exhibited sharp decrease in microbial groups load (aerobic microorganisms, E. coli, Enterobacteriaceae, and staphylococci) during refrigerated storage (4 ± 1°C) for 10 days. Additionally, the sensorial attributes (appearance, odor, color, and texture) of EC-treated samples preserved their elevated qualities for storage duration. The most effective EC blend contained 1.5% from Cht/NPs and 1.0% from CLE. The CLE/Cht-NPs could be impressively recommended as effectual natural composites for shrimps’ biopreservation during cold storage.
