Abstract:BackgroundMost food packaging materials are non‐biodegradable and do not protect against microbial growth. In the present study, we have synthesized and characterized environmentally friendly packaging material using nanotechnology.ObjectiveCascabela thevetia incorporated zinc nanoparticles and PVP/KC blended films of various ratios were synthesized using the solvent casting method. The nanoparticles were tested for their physical and chemical properties. The antimicrobial activity of films and an in vivo toxi… Show more
