This study aimed to estimate the effects of chitosan/ corn starch (CH/ CS equal 62:38) film in combination with nettle essential oil nanoemulsions (0.41 wt% NEONEs) and starch nanocrystals (6 wt% SNCs) on the microbial and qualitative characteristics of the fillets during refrigeration storage (4 ± 1 °C). The fillets were covered by biopolymeric films (CH/CS, CH/CS/SNCs, CH/CS/ NEONEs, CH/CS/SNCs/NEONEs). The qualitative analysis of refrigerated fillets was performed on days 1, 7, and 10. The incorporation of NEONEs and SNCs into CH/CS made an active film with antimicrobial effects. The decrease in pH (5.89 %), PV (44.72 %), FFA (10.41 %), TVB-N (35.01 %), TBA (27.07 %) and increase in moisture (5.38 %) were observed in the covered fillets by CH/CS/SNCs/NEONEs film in compared to uncovered fillets at 4 °C on day 10. The results revealed that incorporating SNCs (6 %) and NEONEs (0.41 %) into CH/CS could increase the storage time of the refrigerated fish fillets.

The aim of this study was to investigate the Octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) modification and nanonization of Cyperus esculentus starch (CES) on its physicochemical properties. Cyperus esculentus starch nanoparticles (SNPs) were prepared by nanoprecipitation method and modified with OSA. The results showed that the average particle size of the prepared SNPs was 125.

This study investigates the interaction of amino-modified starch nanoparticles (NH-SNPs) and unmodified SNPs with pepsin and trypsin and the influence of the formation of protein coronas on the release of polyphenols. We discovered that NH-SNPs bound loosely to pepsin, while they bound tightly to trypsin, by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring and zeta potential measurement. SNPs did not easily bind to the two digestive enzymes.

Background: Octenylsuccinic anhydride (OSA) is one of the efficient compounds used in food industries as an emulsifier. The current study describes the augmentation of tocotrienol (T3) bioavailability by combining it with OSA and then converting it into a nanoemulsion. The creation of the nanoemulsions ASG-T3U, ASG-T3U and ASG-T3U involved ultrasonication power at 300 W for 10, 20 and 30 cycles, respectively.

The present study intended to investigate the properties of collagen peptide (CP)-astragaloside (AG) nanocomplexes (CPANs) improved oxidized hydroxypropyl starch (OHS)/chitosan (CS) (OC) film and to explore the preservation of chilled beef. The results indicated that AG significantly enhanced the stability, antioxidant capacity, and antibacterial properties of CP through mechanisms like static quenching and hydrophobic interactions. The incorporation of CPANs improved thickness, swellability, and water vapor blocking, UV-blocking and mechanical properties, antioxidant and antibacterial activity of OC film.

Soluble starch/zinc oxide nanocomposites could be promising candidates for eco-friendly antimicrobial, food packaging, and a wide range of other utilization. In order to find a new way for the preparation of this kind of nanocomposites, an efficient and energy-saving reaction for the synthesis of soluble starch/zinc oxide nanocomposites has been investigated. The reaction was implemented in a solid state at room temperature without post-reaction calcination.
