Abstract

Abstract Novel colorimetric films were developed for real-time monitoring of fish freshness based on starch/polyvinyl alcohol (SPVA) incorporated with roselle ( Hibiseus sabdariffa L.) anthocyanins (RACNs). Firstly, RACNs were extracted from roselle dehydrated calyxes. Secondly, SPVA aqueous solution was obtained with a mass rate of 2:1 (starch/PVA). Thirdly, the colorimetric films were fabricated by immobilizing 30, 60 and 120 mg RACNs/100 g starch into SPVA matrix with casting/solvent evaporation method. FTIR spectra of the colorimetric films showed that RACNs were successfully immobilized into the SPVA matrix. X-ray diffraction spectra and SEM micrographs indicated that the crystallinity of PVA was reduced during the film-forming process and the compatibility between starch and PVA was improved, owing to the presence of RACNs. The incorporation of RACNs led to a decrease of water content and tensile strength and an increase of elongation at break of the colorimetric films compared with the SPVA film. The color stability test showed that the colorimetric films were stable at refrigeration temperature and room temperature up to 14 days with relative color changes below than 5%. The colorimetric films with lower content of RACNs were found more sensitive towards ammonia. An application trial was conducted to monitor the freshness of silver carp ( Hypophthalmichthys molitrix ) at refrigeration temperature. The colorimetric films presented visible color changes over time due to a variety of basic volatile amines known as total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N). Hence, these colorimetric films can be used to monitor the real-time fish freshness for intelligent packaging.

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.
