Abstract
Guaco leaves (Mikania glomerata Sprengel) show potential as a source of phenolic compounds (PC) that can be extracted for application in active film production. The phenolic profile of guaco leaf hydroethanolic extracts (GLHE) and their impact on the properties of the gelatin-glycerol film-forming solutions (FFS) and films were evaluated. GLHE were prepared using 20 (GLHE.20), 40 (GLHE.40), and 60 % (v/v) ethanol (GLHE.60), and incorporated into gelatin FFS at concentrations of 50 or 150 (g/100 g gelatin). The phenolic profile of GLHE was determined by untargeted metabolomics. The FFS and their films were characterized. Phenolic acids and flavonoids comprised 75 % of the PC and significantly influenced the phenolic profile of the extracts. Multivariate analyses suggested that derivatives of caffeic and coumaric acids, along with various flavonoids, contributed to the strong antioxidant activity of GLHE.40 and GLHE.60. The addition of these extracts into films did not affect their microstructure, crystallinity, thickness, moisture content, solubility in water, and opacity. On the other hand, thermal properties, water contact angle, water vapor permeability, mechanical properties, and color parameters. Moreover, the addition of GLHE increased the antioxidant activity (AoA) of the material, without, however, conferring antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacteria. A good stability of the AoA within the gelatin matrix was observed over a six-month period. Overall, the type of solvent affected the films’ tensile strength (TS) (GLHE.20 <GLHE.40 <GLHE.60) but regarding the GLHE concentration, only 150 % sample increased TS as compared with the control films. In conclusion, the Guaco leaf extracts are rich in phenolic compounds with good bioactivity and can be used in the production of active films based on gelatin.
期刊介绍:
Official Journal of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering:
Part C
FBP aims to be the principal international journal for publication of high quality, original papers in the branches of engineering and science dedicated to the safe processing of biological products. It is the only journal to exploit the synergy between biotechnology, bioprocessing and food engineering.
Papers showing how research results can be used in engineering design, and accounts of experimental or theoretical research work bringing new perspectives to established principles, highlighting unsolved problems or indicating directions for future research, are particularly welcome. Contributions that deal with new developments in equipment or processes and that can be given quantitative expression are encouraged. The journal is especially interested in papers that extend the boundaries of food and bioproducts processing.
The journal has a strong emphasis on the interface between engineering and food or bioproducts. Papers that are not likely to be published are those:
• Primarily concerned with food formulation
• That use experimental design techniques to obtain response surfaces but gain little insight from them
• That are empirical and ignore established mechanistic models, e.g., empirical drying curves
• That are primarily concerned about sensory evaluation and colour
• Concern the extraction, encapsulation and/or antioxidant activity of a specific biological material without providing insight that could be applied to a similar but different material,
• Containing only chemical analyses of biological materials.
