Preparation and performance testing of corn starch/pullulan/gallic acid multicomponent composite films for active food packaging

Antioxidant Edible Films Derived from Belitung Taro Tubers (Xanthosoma sagittifolium) Incorporated with Moringa Leaf Extract (Moringa oleifera)

“…Generally, moringa leaf extract was found to increase film roughness. These observations implied the development of hydrogen bonding among the hydrophilic compounds ( Zarandona et al, 2020 ; Zhang et al, 2023b ). The higher the moringa leaf extract concentration, the more H-bonds formed, resulting in a higher degree of heterogeneity.…”

“…Furthermore, the roughness of the films also increased following the addition of moringa leaf extract. The cracks and roughness on the film surfaces might be attributed to the formation of H-bonds among the hydrophilic compounds ( Zhang et al, 2023b ).…”
