Abstract:
The use of edible films has garnered significant interest in the food and environmental sectors due to their potential to prevent food deterioration and their biodegradability. This study aimed to develop and characterize edible films based on camu-camu residue, gelatin, and glycerol, evaluating their solubility, thermal, degradability, antioxidant, and water vapor permeability properties of the gelatin matrix. This is the first study incorporating camu-camu into a gelatin and glycerol matrix. The films produced with camu-camu residue were manageable and soluble, with some non-soluble residues, providing a shiny and well-presented appearance. In the biodegradation results, samples 3 and 4 appeared to degrade the most, being two of the three most affected samples in the triplicate. The films showed degradation modifications from the third day of the experiment. In the germination and plant growth analysis, sample 4 exhibited satisfactory development compared to the other samples, emerging as the sample with the best overall result in the analyses, attributed to a 13.84 cm increase in the growth of the upper part of the seedling. These results indicate that the produced materials have potential for food packaging applications.
摘要:
可食用膜的使用由于其防止食物变质的潜力和其生物降解性而在食品和环境领域中引起了极大的兴趣。本研究旨在开发和表征基于camu-camu残留物的可食用膜,明胶,和甘油,评估它们的溶解度,热,降解性,抗氧化剂,明胶基质的水蒸气渗透性。这是第一项将camu-camu掺入明胶和甘油基质中的研究。用camu-camu残留物生产的薄膜易于处理且可溶,有一些不溶性残留物,提供了一个闪亮和呈现良好的外观。在生物降解结果中,样品3和4似乎降解最多,是一式三份中受影响最大的三个样本中的两个。从实验的第三天开始,膜显示出降解改性。在发芽和植物生长分析中,与其他样品相比,样品4表现出令人满意的显影,成为分析中总体结果最好的样本,归因于幼苗上部的生长增加了13.84厘米。这些结果表明所生产的材料具有用于食品包装应用的潜力。
