“…Thus, film opacity was evaluated by detecting the light transmission at 600 nm through the CH films containing different amounts of BEOMCs. Figure 6 shows that film opacity was significantly increased, more than doubling, in the films containing even only 1% (6.7 ± 0.08 mm −1 ) of microcapsules compared to the control samples (3.1 ± 0.07 mm −1 ), confirming previous studies that have demonstrated that film transparency decreased in all the films prepared in the presence of either nanoparticles or microcapsules [ 29 , 50 , 51 ].…”

The essential oil (EO) from basil—Ocimum basilicum—was characterized, microencapsulated by vibration technology, and used to prepare a new type of packaging system designed to extend the food shelf life. The basil essential oil (BEO) chemical composition and antimicrobial activity were analyzed, as well as the morphological and biological properties of the derived BEO microcapsules (BEOMC). Analysis of BEO by gas chromatography demonstrated that the main component was linalool, whereas the study of its antimicrobial activity showed a significant inhibitory effect against all the microorganisms tested, mostly Gram-positive bacteria. Moreover, the prepared BEOMC showed a spheroidal shape and retained the EO antimicrobial activity. Finally, chitosan-based edible films were produced, grafted with BEOMC, and characterized for their physicochemical and biological properties. Since their effective antimicrobial activity was demonstrated, these films were tested as packaging system by wrapping cooked ham samples during 10 days of storage, with the aim of their possible use to extend the shelf life of the product. It was demonstrated that the obtained active film can both control the bacterial growth of the cooked ham and markedly inhibit the pH increase of the packaged food.

“…Starch is a biopolymer, degradable by microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria, and enzymes [ 9 ]. Starch is formed in nature and can be used as a raw material for biodegradable materials [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. Furthermore, starch-based films might be a less expensive choice than polylactic acid (PLA) films for some food packaging.…”

“…Starch-based films and composites offer great potential to be ecologically suitable materials for food packaging [ 3 , 20 , 22 , 23 , 26 ]. Starch-based film may be used to create packaging that has antibacterial and antioxidant properties [ 17 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 ]. Starch has application in various fields—primarily in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and paper industries—as a matrix, binder or filler [ 32 , 33 ].…”

Starch films can be used as materials for food packaging purposes. The goal of this study is to compare how the starch origin influence the selected starch film properties. The films were made from various starches such as that from maize, potato, oat, rice, and tapioca using 50%w of glycerine as a plasticizer. The obtained starch-based films were made using the well-known casting method from a starch solution in water. The properties of the films that were evaluated were tensile strength, water vapour transition rate, moisture content, wettability, and their surface free energy. Surface free energy (SFE) and its polar and dispersive components were calculated using the Owens-Wendt-Rabel-Kaelbe approach. The values of SFE in the range of 51.64 to 70.81 mJ∙m−2 for the oat starch-based film and the maize starch-based film. The films revealed worse mechanical properties than those of conventional plastics for packaging purposes. The results indicated that the poorest tensile strength was exhibited by the starch-based films made from oat (0.36 MPa) and tapioca (0.78 MPa) and the greatest tensile strength (1.49 MPa) from potato.

“…The film-forming dispersions should be applied to flat surfaces using a sprayer, spreader, or dipping roller, and dried to eliminate the solvent, forming a film structure [127,130]. Casting has been extensively used in laboratory studies because it does not require specific equipment and consumes lesser amounts of raw materials; many researches refer to films obtained by casting [131][132][133][134][135][136].…”

A critical overview of current approaches to the development of starch-containing packaging, integrating the principles of green chemistry (GC), green technology (GT) and green nanotechnology (GN) with those of green packaging (GP) to produce materials important for both us and the planet is given. First, as a relationship between GP and GC, the benefits of natural bioactive compounds are analyzed and the state-of-the-art is updated in terms of the starch packaging incorporating green chemicals that normally help us to maintain health, are environmentally friendly and are obtained via GC. Newer approaches are identified, such as the incorporation of vitamins or minerals into films and coatings. Second, the relationship between GP and GT is assessed by analyzing the influence on starch films of green physical treatments such as UV, electron beam or gamma irradiation, and plasma; emerging research areas are proposed, such as the use of cold atmospheric plasma for the production of films. Thirdly, the approaches on how GN can be used successfully to improve the mechanical properties and bioactivity of packaging are summarized; current trends are identified, such as a green synthesis of bionanocomposites containing phytosynthesized metal nanoparticles. Last but not least, bioinspiration ideas for the design of the future green packaging containing starch are presented.
