From Emulsions to Films: The Role of Polysaccharide Matrices in Essential Oil Retention Within Active Packaging Films

Foods, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(9), P. 1501 - 1501

Published: April 25, 2025

Essential oil-loaded edible films have emerged as promising natural systems for active food packaging due to their antimicrobial and antioxidant potential. However, retaining volatile bioactives within hydrophilic matrices remains challenging. In this regard, study compared the performance of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), citrus peel pectin (CPP), potato starch (PS) encapsulating orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) essential oil using Tween 80 surfactant glycerol a plasticizer. Film-forming emulsions were characterized regarding droplet size distribution rheological behavior. Films analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Limonene retention was quantitatively determined post-drying through gas chromatography. CMC-based exhibited highest (~65%), primarily higher viscosity, which limited mobility volatilization. Despite presenting similar internal porosity, PS showed significantly lower (~53%), attributed larger viscosity. CPP films, with smallest droplets intermediate limonene PS-based highlighting that high porosity may compromise encapsulation efficacy. The results emphasize matrix viscosity emulsion stability are critical determinants retention. Although polysaccharide particularly CMC, carriers, further structural processing optimizations required enhance commercial applications.
