The aim of this study was to develop and characterize carrageenan-based films with the addition aqueous Chinese hawthorn extract in concentrations 5%, 10%, 15%, as well examine their application impact on prolongation fresh strawberries’ shelf life. were prepared using casting method, mechanical, physical, structural, chemical, barrier properties investigated, along antioxidative antimicrobial extract. Tests strawberries included monitoring changes acidity, visual characteristics, weight loss, ripening, oxidative status during storage. results showed that extract, due its high total polyphenol content, contributed improvement films‘ antioxidant activity but exhibited low potential. Increasing concentration led higher water content improved at lower concentrations, while excessive (15%) impaired films’ properties. FTIR analysis confirmed presence characteristic peaks for carrageenan spectrum. film 15% blackberry demonstrated best efficiency preserving post-harvest quality strawberries. Carrageenan-based have significant potential packaging fresh, perishable foods such In providing necessary protection packaged product, they represent a sustainable solution aimed reducing waste generated by use plastic packaging.
