Background Starch-based films are degradable, renewable, cost effective, and can be used
as a foodstuff packaging material. Functional starch-based films have attracted extensive …

Edible films and coatings, composed of biological components such as proteins, lipids, and
polysaccharides, play a pivotal role in various applications. While proteins from diverse plant …

The search to improve the characteristics of biomaterials obtained from natural biopolymers
such as starch has led to the use of mixtures of various polymers with plasticizing agents …

Plastics with strong mechanical and barrier properties make them a dominant packaging
choice. Their lack of biodegradability, however, with a significant environmental threat, has …

In this study, a method was developed to encapsulated carvacrol in nanofibers from soluble
potato starch. The carvacrol was added in starch solutions at various concentrations (0, 20 …

Waste potatoes peels (WPP) were adopted as a Biomass in this investigation to produce
highly porous activated Biochars. The carbonized-activation process was principally …

Herein, we have investigated the synergistic plasticizing effect of water (W) and glycerol (G)
on the physicochemical and structural properties of starch-based films prepared by extrusion …

Oxidized corn starch (OS) has a good film-forming ability; however, its poor mechanical
properties and moisture barrier are shortcomings. To improve the deficiencies of OS film, soy …

In this study, biodegradable films were produced from cassava starch modified by ozone at
different levels. The films were produced by casting technique using native and ozonated …

This research focused on the development of carrageenan based biodegradable films
incorporated with olive leaves extract (OLE). OLE microbial inhibition and its total phenolics …
