Rheological Properties and Antioxidant Activity of Gelatin-Based Edible Coating Incorporating Tomato ( L.) Extract.

Gelatin is a promising biopolymer for edible coatings thanks to its low cost and gelling properties. However, its weak mechanical properties limit its use. This study aimed to develop a gelatin coating with tomato extract, analyzing its antioxidant activity and rheological properties for food applications.

Nanoencapsulation of Eggplant ( L.) Peel Extract in Electrospun Gelatin Nanofiber: Preparation, Characterization, and In Vitro Release.

This study describes the preparation and characterization of eggplant peel extract-loaded electrospun gelatin nanofiber and study of its in vitro release. Results obtained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) micrograph revealed that eggplant peel extract-loaded electrospun gelatin nanofiber is in nanometric range with an average diameter 606.7 ± 184.
