Effect of UV exposure time on the properties of films prepared from biotechnologically derived chicken gelatin
Open accessAbstract
Biomaterials (films, foils, fibers, coatings) based on proteins are becoming increasingly important due to the growing applications for which pork and beef gelatins are used. Alternative types of gelatins (poultry or fish), which have not yet been sufficiently tested, represent a high potential. This study looks at the effect of different UV exposure times on chicken gelatin films with added glycerol. The gelatin was prepared using a unique enzymatic hydrolysis process. The quality of the UV-exposed films was compared with gelatin films not exposed to UV light. Radiation-induced crosslinking improved the mechanical and physical properties of the films. The UV crosslinked films are stabilized at a degree of swelling from 700 to 900%; moreover, they extend their dissolution to more than 7 days while maintaining their original shape. In contrast, non-crosslinked films swell and dissolve in water faster. Further, the effect of UV radiation on the water vapor permeability and color of the films was monitored. Water vapor permeability decreased by 2.5 times with increasing crosslinking time for 30% and 40% glycerol content, and the yellowness of the irradiated samples increased with exposure time in the interval from 24 to 28. Using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the differences in the amount of bonding based on irradiation time were analyzed. As a result of crosslinking, the intensity of existing bonds increased. Thermal properties were verified through differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. The results proved that chicken gelatin is suitable for preparing films in foods and medicine. Applying UV radiation to crosslink gelatin films is an alternative to traditionally used chemical crosslinkers.

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.
