RESUMO

For the development of functional edible packaging that will not lead to rejection by the consumer, it is needed to analyze the interactions between ingredients in the packaging matrix. The aim of this study was to develop edible chitosan-based coatings that have been enriched with red grape extracts, zinc, silver, and titanium nanoparticles. The organoleptic properties of the produced edible packaging were described by quantitative descriptive analysis and consumer acceptability was verified by hedonic analysis. By image analysis, color parameters in the CIELab system, opacity, Whiteness and Yellowness Index were described. The microstructure was described by scanning electron microscopy. The hedonic evaluation revealed that the addition of nanometals and their increasing concentration caused a deterioration in sample acceptability. The overall evaluation was higher than 5 in 50% of the samples containing nanometals. The addition of nanometals also caused statistically significant changes in L*, a*, and b* values. The sample transparency generally decreased with the increasing concentration of nanoparticle addition. Scanning electron microscopy showed, that the addition of nanometals does not disrupt the protective function of the packaging. From a sensory point of view, the addition of ZnO nanoparticles in concentrations of 0.05 and 0.2% appeared to be the most favorable of all nanometals.

RESUMO

Studies dealing with the development of edible/biodegradable packaging have been gaining popularity since these commodities are marked as being ecofriendly, especially when byproducts are incorporated. Consequently, this study aimed at the development of chitosan-based coatings with plant byproducts. Their sensory properties, colour attributes, occurrence of cracks in microstructure and biodegradability were analysed. Coatings containing grape and blueberry pomace had statistically significantly (p < 0.05) higher levels of colour intensity. Coating samples were characterised by lower aroma intensity (3.46-4.77), relatively smooth surface (2.40-5.86), and low stickiness (2.11-3.14). In the overall hedonic evaluation, the samples containing parsley pomace in all concentrations and a sample containing 5% grape pomace achieved a statistically significantly (p < 0.05) better evaluation (5.76-5.93). The lowest values of the parameter ΔE2000 were recorded for the sample containing 5% parsley pomace (3.5); the highest was for the sample with 20% blueberry pomace (39.3). An analysis of the coating surface microstructure showed the presence of surface cracks at an 80 K magnification but the protective function of the edible coating was not disrupted by the added plant pomace. The produced samples can be considered to have a high biodegradability rate. The results of our experimentally produced coatings indicate their possible application on a commercial scale.
