Abstract:The objective of this research was to determine the effect of Uncaria gambir Roxb filtrate addition on functional edible films based on corn starch. This study used a Factorial Randomized Completely Design with two treatments and three replication for each treatment. The first factor was the concentration of Uncaria gambir Roxb filtrate (20%, 30%, 40%) and the second factor was the mixing separation method (filtering, centrifuge 1000 rpm, centrifuge 2000 rpm). The results showed that treatment of Uncaria gambi… Show more
“…Thus, prolonging the storage time for fresh fish preservation is a critical measure in the processing (Zulkarneev et al, 2019). Due to some evidence over the silver escaping from nanocomposite and worries concerning the recycling of LDPE as a host for silver ion and biocompatibility; however, the researchers are interested in either the green-synthesis of nanocomposites by reducing the concentration of silver and other ions in the final products (Dehghanizade et al, 2018), which produced from natural substrates such as tea polyphenols and chitosan composite film (Peng et al, 2020), edible film from mammee apple, Mammea americana a well-known tropical fruit (Nascimento et al, 2020), starch based film loaded with Uncaria gambir (Santoso et al, 2019), yam/maize starch edible film with lemon plasticizer (Song et al, 2019) or the environment-friendly polymer-based compounds as a host for ions (Nwabor et al, 2020). The herbal-derived nanoparticles (NPs) such as Savory (S. rechingeri) extract with remarkable antimicrobial activities can be applied in various professions such as health care, food industries, biomedicine and engineering sciences.…”
The nanosilver food packaging films were developed by polyvinyl alcohol activated with Satureja rechingeri extract (S-AgNPs/PVA) using the solvent casting to evaluate the freshness of Oncorhynchus mykiss fillets during 14 days at the refrigerated temperature. The 160 pieces of fish were enfolded in 4 types of films as main group-series. The main components of the extract were carvacrol (83.2%) p-cymene (3.11%), thymol (2.13%) and γ-terpinene (1.63%). The UV-Vis and TEM evaluations of S-AgNPs showed that the size of S-AgNPs was mostly smaller than 55 nm in diameter. Mesophilic and psychrophilic bacteria counts were remarkably less than 6.0 log CFU/g about 2.1, 1.3 log CFU/g and 2.0, 1.0 log CFU/g, respectively for fish samples wrapped in S-AgNP/Ult.PVA (Ultrasound method) and S-AgNP/Pho.PVA (Photochemical method) preserved at 4 °C on the 7th day. S-AgNP/Ult.PVA and S-AgNP/Pho.PVA showed strong efficiency in complete eliminating S. aureus and psychrophilic bacteria from coated trout samples than E. coli and mesophiles. It is suggested that AgNP/Ult.PVA and S-AgNP/Pho.PVA films can be used as nanocomposite film for fish preservation at refrigerated temperature to postpone the spoilage up to 7th day.

“…For all three types of starch, the reduction in gas exchange was found to be approximately 27%. Corn starch, with hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, Uncaria gambir extract, and glycerol were used as the main ingredients for edible film preparation [94]. To assess the influence of gambir extract to edible film parameters, an experimental design and statistical analysis were used.…”
In recent years, food packaging has evolved from an inert and polluting waste that remains after using the product toward an active item that can be consumed along with the food it contains. Edible films and coatings represent a healthy alternative to classic food packaging. Therefore, a significant number of studies have focused on the development of biodegradable enveloping materials based on biopolymers. Animal and vegetal proteins, starch, and chitosan from different sources have been used to prepare adequate packaging for perishable food. Moreover, these edible layers have the ability to carry different active substances such as essential oils—plant extracts containing polyphenols—which bring them considerable antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. This review presents the latest updates on the use of edible films/coatings with different compositions with a focus on natural compounds from plants, and it also includes an assessment of their mechanical and physicochemical features. The plant compounds are essential in many cases for considerable improvement of the organoleptic qualities of embedded food, since they protect the food from different aggressive pathogens. Moreover, some of these useful compounds can be extracted from waste such as pomace, peels etc., which contributes to the sustainable development of this industry.
“…Whey protein, for example, may be used in formulation of edible films and/or coatings, leading to superior mechanical properties in the presence of oligosaccharides (Fernandes et al, 2020). Corn starch is another polymer that can be used in active edible films, mechanical properties of which are greatly affected by mixing method and the level of added active ingredients (Santoso et al, 2019). Processing waste of various food manufacturing processes, like potato peel waste, may find a place in formation of edible films and coatings (Othman et al, 2017).…”
