Influence of α-tocopherol on physicochemical properties of chitosan-based films
Open accessAbstract
Chitosan has been exploited as a material for the development of edible films, and additionallycan be used as a carrier of functional compounds such as a-tocopherol. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of the incorporation of a-tocopherol in chitosan-based films. FTIR and thermal analyses were performed and showed that the incorporation of a-tocopherol affects the chemical structure of chitosan-based films with the establishment of new chemical bonds and the decrease of crystallinity. Results also showed that theincreaseofa-tocopherolconcentrationpromotesadecrease ofwatercontent(from12.6 to11.4%)of the films. The addition of a-tocopherol to chitosan films leads to a significant reduction (p<0.05) of tensile strength from 34.06 to 16.24 MPa, and elongation-at-break from 53.84 to 23.12%. Film opacity values (ranging from 4.74 to 7.83%) increased when a-tocopherol was incorporated into the film. Antioxidant capacity of chitosan-based films was evaluated and was enhanced when a-tocopherol was present in the film matrix. Results showed that a-tocopherol can be successfully added to the chitosan films enhancing the final quality and shelf-life extension of food products.

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.
