Starch/gelatin (SG) films incorporated with resveratrol (RES) at various concentrations (0%–
20%, w/w, on the weight of starch and gelatin) were developed via thermal extrusion …

Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques were
used to study the effect of four food additives, agar, alginate, lecithin and glycerol, at three …

To address the limitation of strong hydrophilicity of edible films, starch/gelatin (S/G) films
incorporated with natural waxes (beeswax (BW), candelilla wax (CL), and carnauba wax …

Blending of cassava starch and whey protein isolate (WPI) films containing plant extracts
showed modified properties and release behaviors. Effects of native starch (NS) and …

Functional bioplastic packaging was produced from thermoplastic starch (TPS) with nitrite (1–
5%) and polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT)(PBAT/TPS at 30/70 and 40/60) via …

In order to achieve the recovery and utilization of gelatin (Gel) extracted from leather solid
wastes, a renewable, eco-friendly and low-cost honeycomb biomass adsorbent based on …

The application of cinnamaldehyde essential oil (CEO), which is naturally antibacterial, has
been limited due to its high volatility and insolubility in water. This issue may be addressed …

The paper presents the results of studies of the microstructure morphology and the
