Teak tree (Tectona grandis) is a tropical whose wood often used in the furniture industry, while leaves are still underutilized. possess active compounds with potential to be further explored. On other hand, currently biodegradable-based packaging being developed address environmental problems. For this reason, research was carried out on edible film made from chitosan addition of ingredients t...

Procedures were developed to produce edible wheat, gluten-based films. A film was produced as a standard. Five additional films were then produced by modifying the initial film-forming solution. Modifications included changing the plasticizer, partially substituting wheat gluten with soy protein isolate and corn zein, and incorporating two acetylated monoglyceride products. All films were chara...

The objective of this work is to study the effect of the rapeseed oil content on the physical properties of whey protein emulsion films. For this purpose, whey protein films with the addition of 0, 1, 2 and 3% of rapeseed oil, and glycerol as a plasticizer were obtained by the casting method. Film-forming emulsions were evaluated and compared using light scattering granulometry. The Sauter mean...
