Gelatin is an important biopolymer that is extracted from collagen and is extensively used in
the food industry because of its excellent functional properties. However, native gelatin films …

The high molecular weight of chitin, as a biopolymer, challenges its extraction due to its
insolubility in the solvents. Also, chitosan, as the N-deacetylated form of chitin, can be …

Edible films with essential oils (EOs) are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to
synthetic packaging due to their environmentally friendly properties and ability as carriers of …

In this study, cinnamaldehyde (CIN)-loaded chitosan nanoparticles (CCNPs) were fabricated
and embedded into chitosan/poly (vinyl alcohol)/fish gelatin (CPF) ternary matrices to …

Current trends in food packaging systems are toward biodegradable polymer materials,
especially the food biopolymer films made from polysaccharides and proteins, but they are …

Strawberries spoil rapidly after harvest due to factors such as the ripening process, weight
loss, and, most importantly, microbial contamination. Traditionally, several methods are used …

The physicochemical, thermal and mechanical properties of blood orange peel pectin
(BOPP) film blended with fish gelatin (FG), at different ratios, were investigated. BOPP was …

Natural polymer-based nanocomposites have received significant attention in both scientific
and industrial research in recent years. They can help to eliminate the consequences of …

Fish gelatin is a class of biopolymers acquired from the hydrolysis of fish collagen, and it
contains abundant amino acids for nutritive uses as dietary products. The natural …

Petroleum-based polymers are widely used and known that they cause serious
environmental problems due to their non-biodegradability. To this end, researchers have …
