Summary: The study aimed to create edible packaging by combining orange essential oil and trehalose in a carrageenan matrix, resulting in decreased transmittance in UV and Vis regions and some antibacterial properties against Gram-positive bacteria. The research highlighted the influence of carrageenan amount and the combination of orange essential oil on the compatibility of trehalose with the film matrix. Different combinations of trehalose, orange essential oil, and carrageenan were found to impact the properties of the edible film, providing valuable insights for future research and applications.

Summary: In this study, Salvia Mirzaiani essential oil (SMEO) was extracted and analyzed for its compounds using GC-MS, followed by the production of SMEO nanoemulsion (SMEO-NE) using ultrasound. Gum-based films containing different concentrations of SMEO-NE were prepared and showed changes in physical and mechanical properties, as well as antioxidant and antibacterial activities. Analysis techniques such as FTIR, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, and electron microscope images confirmed the interaction between SMEO-NE and the film matrix, leading to alterations in the microstructure of the films.

Summary: The global consumption of meat has been increasing, leading to a higher demand for packaging materials in the meat processing industry. Petrochemical packaging materials used in this industry have a negative impact on the environment due to their slow regeneration and biodegradation. Therefore, there is a need to develop eco-friendly packaging materials for meat processing. Edible films derived from natural compounds with antioxidant and antibacterial properties have been studied as alternatives to reduce plastic packaging in the meat industry, but further efforts are required to enhance their properties for commercial applications.

Summary: This study evaluated the effect of commercial plant extracts as natural antioxidants in mechanically deboned poultry meat. The extracts were characterized for phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and antioxidant activity. Results showed that grape, green tea, mate, and rosemary extracts had a positive effect in decelerating lipid oxidation in MDPM. The addition of these extracts extended the shelf life of MDPM and improved the quality of meat products.
