“…The WVP value of the FMS film that were incorporated with clove leaf oil decreased marginally from 3.55 to 3.49 × 10 −9 g m s −1 Pa with the addition of the oil. A similar tendency was observed in the corn starch‐chitosan films that contained lemon essential oil . On the other hand, Maizura et al reported that the WVP value of sago starch‐alginate film that was incorporated with lemongrass oil increased.…”

“…Pagno et al [22] observed that the TS of the films made of quinoa flour containing oregano oil decreased considerably from 3.5 to 1.2 MPa, and this was accompanied by an increase in E from 14.3 to 27.3% with the addition of the oil of up to 2.0%. Bof et al [5] also reported that the addition of lemon essential oil of up to 3% to the corn starch-chitosan film resulted in a decrease in its TS from 18.3 to 6.7 MPa and an increase in its E from 57.0 to 66.0%. Moreover, corn starch-based films that contained Mentha pulegium oil also showed a decrease in TS and an increase in E. [20] These changes in the mechanical properties of the starch films with essential oils can be explained by the less cohesive network between starch and essential oils.…”

“…A similar tendency was observed in the corn starch-chitosan films that contained lemon essential oil. [5] On the other hand, Maizura et al [24] reported that the WVP value of sago starch-alginate film that was incorporated with lemongrass oil increased. This difference in the WVP values might be attributed to different interactions between the film matrix and the phenolic compounds of essential oils.…”

Clove leaf oil was incorporated into foxtail millet starch (FMS) for developing an active packaging material with antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. The FMS films that contained clove leaf oil exhibited changes in tensile strength (6.78–4.00 MPa) and elongation at break (66.26–99.48%) with the addition of increasing concentrations of the essential oil, and possessed ultraviolet‐light barrier properties. Moreover, the FMS films that contained clove leaf oil inhibited the growth of Listeria monocytogenes. The addition of clove leaf oil resulted in excellent ABTS and DPPH radical‐scavenging activity of the films. The FMS film packaging that contained 1% clove leaf oil led to a decrease in the population of Listeria monocytogenes in queso blanco cheese by 1.19 log CFU g−1 after storage for 24 days, compared with that in the control samples. In addition, the concentration of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances decreased by 54%. Thus, these results suggest that the FMS films that contain clove leaf oil can be used as a new packaging material for enhancing the shelf life of queso blanco cheese.

Starch/polyester blends are potential substitutes for non‐degradable materials. Active food packaging was produced by the blown‐extrusion of starch/poly (butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) blends added to α‐tocopherol (α‐TOC). The films showed adequate stability and processability by the blown‐extrusion method and were converted into an essentially amorphous and homogeneous material. The transparency and water vapor permeability of the films increased with the addition of α‐TOC. The antioxidant interfered in the organization of the polymeric matrix, which was confirmed by SEM images, resulting in lower tensile strength and elongation at break, with no interference due to the α‐TOC concentration. The inclusion of α‐TOC did not influence the thermal stability, and it increased the crystallinity of the samples. The formulation with the lowest concentrations of the antioxidant (T0.25) presented an almost complete release of α‐TOC, proving the efficiency of the films as active packaging. The complete degradation of the materials was proved by evaluating the composting of the films. The eco‐friendly films are promising materials for active food packaging.
