Abstract

The present work was aimed at characterizing biodegradable composite kappa-carrageenan films incorporated with Satureja hortensis (SEO) in terms of their physical, optical, mechanical, barrier and antioxidant properties. Also, in a comparative study, we sought to evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of these films against five pathogens. The films' water vapor barrier properties were found to improve considerably upon the addition of SEO. Carrageenan composite films were less resistant to breakage, more flexible and more opaque with lower gloss than the control film. These results can be explained by the film's microstructure, which was analyzed by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The films incorporating SEO showed good antioxidant properties; this effect was greatly improved when the proportion of added SEO was 3%. Films with SEO effectively inhibited the five microorganisms tested. The results of the present study suggest that SEO as a natural antibacterial agent can potentially be used in packaging a wide range of food products, particularly those that are highly oxidative and microbial sensitive.

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.
