Overview

Randomized trial examines antibacterial efficacy and physical properties of starch films with allspice extract, indicating potential for eco-friendly packaging solutions.

Key Points

  • This research aims to develop and characterize starch films incorporated with allspice extract to evaluate their physical and antibacterial properties.
  • Synthesis of pure starch films and composite films with 1%, 3%, and 5% allspice extract
  • Analysis of antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis
  • Evaluation of physical characteristics such as opacity, thickness, density, and water vapor permeability
  • Films with 5% allspice extract showed inhibition zones of 17.7 mm against Staphylococcus aureus and 14.7 mm against Bacillus subtilis
  • Incorporation of allspice extract increased opacity, thickness, and water vapor permeability of starch films
  • Enhanced films demonstrate potential as biodegradable alternatives to plastic packaging.
