Abstract

The incorporation of antimicrobial compounds into natural polymers can promote increased shelf life and ensure food safety. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial activity, morphological, optical, mechanical, and barrier properties of corn starch films containing orange (Citrus sinensis var. Valencia) essential oil (OEO). The corn starch films were prepared using the casting method. OEO and the corn starch films incorporated with OEO showed higher antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes. The addition of OEO to the films increased the morphological heterogeneity and contributed to the reduction of the tensile strength and elongation of the films, and it increased the moisture content, water solubility, and water vapor permeability. The water vapor permeability and partial or total solubility of a film in water prior to consumption of a product are of interest when the film is used as food coating or for encapsulation of specific molecules.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
