Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on creating a novel bioactive nanofiber using ethyl cellulose, soy protein isolate, and bitter orange peel extract through electrospinning technology.
  • The electrospun nanofibers (NFs) were tested in different weight ratios, with the composition ES11 (1:1 ratio) showing optimal properties such as uniform morphology, high porosity, and excellent thermal stability.
  • Incorporating 20% bitter orange peel extract enhanced the NFs' antioxidant activity significantly and demonstrated antibacterial effects against harmful bacteria like S. aureus and E. coli, highlighting its potential for improving food safety and quality.
