Implication

Development demonstrates biodegradable films with high tensile strength and antioxidant activity from alfalfa, suggesting a green packaging alternative.

Key Points

  • Alfalfa-based films achieved a tensile strength of 11.2 MPa, along with notable antioxidant activity.
  • The optimized formulation used specific concentrations of alfalfa extract, CaCl2, and sorbitol for optimal results.
  • Analysis involved a Box–Behnken Design to enhance the films' properties, focusing on environmental sustainability.
  • These findings support a shift towards biodegradable materials, crucial for reducing plastic waste.
