Abstract:This research aimed to determine the optimum glycerol concentration to be used in the production of chia mucilage-based edible film/coating. The experiment was performed using four different design groups (0%, 5%, and 10% glycerol). The effects of the glycerol concentrations used on the thickness, moisture content and water solubility of the films/coatings were evaluated. The study findings revealed that 1% glycerol concentration was more effective on the properties of the films.
