Essential oils (EOs) derived from plants are rich sources of volatile terpenoids and phenolic compounds. Such compounds have the potential to inactivate pathogenic bacteria on contact and in the vapor phase. Edible films made from fruits or vegetables containing EOs can be used commercially to protect food against contamination by pathogenic bacteria. EOs from cinnamon, allspice, and clove bud ...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study was to determine the usefulness of edible taste strips for measuring human gustatory function. STUDY DESIGN The physical properties of edible taste strips were examined to determine their potential for delivering threshold and suprathreshold amounts of taste stimuli to the oral cavity. Taste strips were then assayed by fluorescence to analyze th...

Edible film merupakan suatu lapisan tipis yang terbuat dari bahan-bahan dapat dikonsumsi dan digunakan untuk mengemas produk pangan. baik yaitu edible memiliki nilai kuat tarik tinggi laju trasnmisi uap air rendah sehingga mampu melindungi makanan gangguan mekanis dengan baik. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Laboratorium Teknik Kimia Fakultas Universitas Malikussaleh, pada bulan oktober-februari...

The objectives of this research were to improve the film-forming properties of Channel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus skin gelatin (CSG) by cross-linking with transglutaminase (TG), determine and optimize the TG reaction time, and characterize the mechanical and barrier properties of CSG edible film. Cross-linking of CSG was performed by TG for 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 min at 50°C, and the reaction w...

Edible film is a thin layer that used as substitute for synthetic plastic or primary packaging of food product. Corn starch suspended with chitosan and glycerol able to improve the quality edible film. The purpose this research determine physical characteristics from modified corn starch. concentrations were 15%, 20% 25%, 30% 40%. Physical observed thickness, absorption, solubility degradation....
