Nanoencapsulation of garlic essential oil using chitosan nanopolymer and its antifungal and anti-aflatoxin B1 efficacy in vitro and in situ

Murugesan Sindhu et al.

Summary: The study compared the effectiveness of garlic essential oil (GEO) and its nanoencapsulated form within chitosan nanomatrix (GEO-CSNPs) as a preservative for stored food. GEO-CSNPs showed complete inhibition of Aspergillus flavus growth and aflatoxin B1 synthesis, with improved antioxidant activity compared to GEO alone. The experiments also showed no negative impacts on germinating seeds. Overall, GEO-CSNPs have the potential to be a novel preservative agent for extending the shelf life of stored food commodities.

Multifunctional nanocomposite active packaging materials: Immobilization of quercetin, lactoferrin, and chitosan nanofiber particles in gelatin films

Milad Tavassoli et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the design and fabrication of multifunctional films from natural materials, aiming to create smart, active, and/or biodegradable packaging. By embedding different kinds of functional nanoparticles into gelatin-based films, the optical, mechanical, barrier, and preservative properties of the films were improved. Incorporation of functional nanoparticles such as quercetin and lactoferrin enhanced the ability of the films to screen UV-light, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties.
