In this study, the effect of composite chitosan-chia seed coating (CH-CG) with Bay laurel (Laurus nobilis) essential oil (BE) in two forms including free and nanocapsulated on the shelf life of quail fillets during the 16-day refrigeration (4 ± 1℃) period was investigated. For this purpose, first, BE was extracted by Clevenger apparatus. Then, nanoliposomes BE were produced, and the properties of BE and nanoliposomes BE were investigated. In order to investigate the shelf life of quail, 6 treatments were produced including 1: control (C), 2: CH-CG, CH-CG+BE at 800 ppm, 3: CH-CG+BE at 1600 ppm, 4: CH-CG+nano BE at 800 ppm, 5: CH-CG+nano BE at 1600 ppm, and periodically chemical parameters (peroxide value, free fatty acid, total volatile basic nitrogen, texture firmness, and chewing ability) and microbial (total viable bacteria (TVC) and psychrotrophic bacteria), and the effect of different treatments on control in Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus inoculated populations in quail was also investigated. The BE had high antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The particle size and microencapsulation efficiency of BE nanoliposome were 98.3 nm and 75.95%, respectively. The results of chemical and microbial analysis showed that in general, the coating with essential oil slowed down the increasing trend of oxidation and microbial indices compared to the control treatment and nanocapsulation of essential oil has increased its antimicrobial and antioxidant properties (p < .05).At the end of storage period, in all tests, treatments of 3, 4, and 5 had the allowed microbial and chemical range and they also inhibited the growth of these bacteria (p < .05). Overall, considering the higher sensory score of treatment 4 and economic efficiency, it seems that this treatment can be used as a natural preservative in the meat industry.

The present study aimed to investigate the impact of polylactic acid (PLA) integrated with nanochitosan (NC) composite film and Ziziphora Clinopodioides essential oil (ZCEO) on oxidative spoilage of rainbow trout fillets during a 9‐day refrigeration period. For this purpose, first, six degradable films including T1: PLA, T2: PLA + NC, T3: PLA + NC + 1% ZCEO, T4: PLA + NC + 1.5% ZCEO, T5: PLA + 1% ZCEO, and T6: PLA + 1.5% ZCEO were prepared. Next, the properties of the films were investigated. The results of the mechanical tests showed that ZCEO decreased the tensile strength and increased the elongation at the break of the PLA films. However, adding NC improved the mechanical characteristics of the PLA film. The outcomes of physical tests including moisture content (14.02%), solubility (17.41%), water vapor permeability (1.14 × 10−7 g s−1 m−1 Pa−1), and oxygen transmission rate (21.54 cm3.mm/m2.24 hr) showed that adding 1% ZCEO improved the film physical characteristics. Nevertheless, by adding 1.5% concentration EO to the PLA film, the values of water vapor permeability, porosity (according to the scanning electron microscopy), and turbidity increased and cross‐sectional pores were observed. Moreover, the films had high antioxidant properties (84.33%). In the next step, the effects of the mentioned films on the oxidative spoilage of rainbow trout fillets were investigated. The results of the chemical analysis in PLA film with the EO compared with the control treatment revealed the increasing trend of oxidation indices, in general. Moreover, increasing the concentration yielded better results such that all treatments containing EO showed satisfactory results up until the storage period ends. In most cases, adding NC affected the mentioned characteristics positively, and the best results were observed in T4 and then in T3. However, based on economics and the better mechanical and physical properties of T3, the film can be applied as an active packaging in fishery products.

The goal of the study was to investigate whether chitosan–citrus essential oil composite works as an efficient preservative in Pacific mackerel ( Pneumatophorus japonicus ) during chilling storage. FT ‐ IR analysis showed that chitosan–citrus essential oil coating was successfully prepared. Our results demonstrated that chitosan–citrus essential oil coating possessed significantly higher capability of scavenging reactive oxygen species ( and OH −) than chitosan. Furthermore, Pacific mackerel coated with chitosan–citrus essential oil composite could significantly reduce parameters of corruption including physicochemical (drop loss, biogenic amine, and thiobarbituric acid‐reactive substances) and microbiological parameters (total viable count), as compared with untreated and chitosan groups after 12 days of storage at −3°C. These results indicated that CS ‐ CEO s could work as efficient preservative for Pacific mackerel storage through ameliorating redox state and inhibiting microbial growth and suggested that chitosan–citrus essential oil composite has great potential in preservation of aquatic products during superchilled storage.
