“…Recently, packaging that inhibits the growth of contaminating microorganisms on food surfaces has been actively researched. Two methods can be used to prepare antibacterial packaging: one is the coating of antimicrobial agents onto plastic films and the other is incorporating volatile or non‐volatile antimicrobial agents into polymers , . In the present study, TZnO‐Ws were incorporated into PUA and antibacterial testing of the PUA/TZnO‐W composite films was performed according to the JIS Z 2801 standard .…”

Tetrapod zinc oxide whiskers (TZnO‐Ws) were successfully synthesized via a thermal oxidation method and confirmed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. A series of poly(urethane acrylate) (PUA)/TZnO‐W composite films with various TZnO‐W contents were prepared via a UV curing method and their physical properties were investigated to understand their possible use as packaging materials. The morphological, thermal, mechanical, antibacterial and barrier properties of the PUA/TZnO‐W composite films were interpreted as a function of TZnO‐W content. The thermal stability, barrier properties and antibacterial properties of the composite films, which were strongly dependent upon their chemical and morphological structure, were enhanced as the TZnO‐W content increased. The oxygen transmission rate and water vapor transmission rate decreased from 614 to 161 cm3 m−2 per day and 28.70 to 28.16 g m−2 per day, respectively. However, the mechanical strength of the films decreased due to the low interfacial interaction and poor dispersion with high TZnO‐W loading. The enhanced barrier properties and good antibacterial properties of the PUA/TZnO‐W composite films indicate that these materials are potentially suitable for many packaging applications. However, further studies are needed to increase the compatibility of polymer matrix and filler. © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry

The antibacterial activity of six essential oils (peppermint, chamomile, cumin, tarragon, dill, and cinnamon) was tested against gram-positive (Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus) and gramnegative (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria. The cinnamon EO was selected for the preparation of active films. Twenty-four active films were developed and tested against the foodborne pathogens. In the next study, antimicrobial films were prepared by incorporating nisin (100AU), cinnamon EO (0.6%), and ZnO NPs (10 mg/15 ml) into the agar-based film and tested against seven strains of L. monocytogenes. The antibacterial activity of the bio-nanocomposite was also examined on the population of pathogens which artificially are inoculated in-depth of minced fish over 12 days.Results showed that cinnamon (CEO) had the highest antimicrobial activity. The results revealed that the blend films with ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) 1 CEO were more effective against gram-positive bacteria than gram-negative bacteria. The strain-specific variation was noticeable for seven tested strains of L. monocytogenes. The films containing nisin and the combination of nisin with ZnO NPs and CEO significantly inhibited the growth of L. monocytogenes on the Tryptic soy agar-NaCl model (p < .05).The results revealed a negligible effect of the active film in minced fish. Practical applicationsThis study developed and utilized antimicrobial nanocomposite films for controlling foodborne pathogens. The antibacterial activity of the active films on the surface of a food model showed that combining ZnO NPs, CEO, and nisin into agar films is a promising method to enhance the food safety.
