Effects of antimicrobial nanocomposite films packaging on the postharvest quality and spoilage bacterial communities of mushrooms (Chanterelles).

ABSTRACT: Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) composite films with the addition of mesoporous silica nanoparticles MSN (0, 2, 4 and 6 wt%) loaded with 10 wt% citral (CIT) were prepared for application in Chanterelles packaging. Composite films with added MSN/CIT showed good mechanical properties, especially 4MSN/CIT/PLA. Changes in physicochemical properties and bacterial flora of Chanterelles during packaging and storage were tested. Compared with CIT/PLA, Chanterelles packed with 4MSN/CIT/PLA showed about 1.62-times lower browning value, 1.53-times lower electrolyte permeability, and 1.83- and 1.78-times lower PPO and POD, respectively, at 12 day. Better physicochemical properties of Chanterelles can be maintained. For bacterial flora changes, Chanterelles packaged with 4MSN/CIT/PLA had more stable flora (p < 0.05) and lower species diversity during storage (p < 0.05), effectively controlling the growth and reproduction of their dominant spoilage bacteria (Enterobacteriaceae spp). In conclusion, the composite membranes obtained by the addition of MSN/CIT to PLA have great potential in the storage of Chanterelles.

Project description:Bio-based and biodegradable packaging combined with chemical sensors and indicators has attracted great attention as they can provide protection combined with information on the actual freshness of foodstuffs. In this study, we present an effective, biodegradable, mostly bio-sourced material ideal for sustainable packaging that can also be used as a smart indicator of ammonia (NH3) vapor and food spoilage. The developed material comprises a blend of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC) loaded with curcumin (CCM), which is fabricated via the scalable techniques of melt extrusion and compression molding. Due to the structural similarity of PLA and PPC, they exhibited good compatibility and formed hydrogen bonds within their blends, as proven by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis confirmed that the blends were thermally stable at the used processing temperature (180 °C) with minimal crystallinity. The rheological and mechanical properties of the PLA/PPC blends were easily tuned by changing the ratio of the biopolymers. Supplementing the PLA/PCC samples with CCM resulted in efficient absorption of UV radiation, yet the transparency of the films was preserved (T700 ∼ 68-84%). The investigation of CCM extract in ethanol with the DPPH• assay demonstrated that the samples could also provide effective antioxidant action, due to the tunable release of the CCM. Analyses for water vapor and oxygen permeability showed that the PPC improved the barrier properties of the PLA/PPC blends, while the presence of CCM did not hinder barrier performance. The capacity for real-time detection of NH3 vapor was quantified using the CIELab color space analysis. A change in color of the sample from a yellowish shade to red was observed by the naked eye. Finally, a film of PLA/PPC/CCM was successfully applied as a sticker indicator to monitor the spoilage of shrimps over time, demonstrating an evident color change from yellow to light orange, particularly for the PPC-containing blend. The developed system, therefore, has the potential to serve as a cost-effective, easy-to-use, nondestructive, smart indicator for food packaging, as well as a means for NH3 gas monitoring in industrial and environmental applications.

Project description:Microbial contamination and the need for sustainable food production are driving the shift toward biodegradable food packaging materials. There is an urgent need to develop smart food packaging materials that can prevent contamination and prolong the shelf life of meat. To achieve this, the physical-chemical characteristics of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based packaging films were enhanced through incorporation of lactic acid and anthocyanins to act as a pH indicator. The mechanical, hydrophilic, barrier, and antibacterial properties of the composite films were then evaluated to test the ability of the film to act as a packaging material. In addition, the surface morphology was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the functional groups by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, optical transparency using ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometer, crystallinity by powder diffraction, and their thermal properties by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The films had a swelling degree (SD) of 222.60 ± 21.19%, dry content (DC) of 70.56 ± 2.54%, moisture content (MC) of 29.44 ± 2%, ALRO moisture (AM) content of 41.85 ± 5.06, and total soluble matter (TSM) of 8.05 ± 1.05%. Moreover, incorporation of lactic acid enhanced the mechanical and the thermal properties of the films but it reduced their optical transparency. The water vapor permeability (WVP) was found to be 14.32 × 10-3 g-1 s-1 Pa-1 and it inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli (EC) (10.67 ± 0.58 cm), Staphylococcus aureus (SA) (10.50 ± 0.40 cm), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) (10.33 ± 0.58 cm), and Staphylococcus epidermidis (11 ± 1 cm) but not Bacillus subtilis (BS). The film's hue changed from red to green over time when used as a packaging material for meat under ambient condition indicating a deterioration in freshness. In conclusion, the developed packaging film exhibited enhanced mechanical, antimicrobial, and hydrophilic properties and it can be used to store and relay information when stored meat begins to decompose through a visible color change of the films.
