Abstract
A novel photodynamic inactivation (PDI)-mediated antimicrobial packaging film (APF) was successfully fabricated by covalently grafting 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) onto the surface of TEMPO-oxidized chitin film (O-CT). The O-CT/ALA films exhibited good mechanical strength, remarkable UV-blocking capacity, high thermal stability, and chemical stability. Notably, the grafted ALA induced the generation of endogenous protoporphyrin IX in bacterial cells, and they were excited to produce ROS under the irradiation of blue light. Consequently, the films inactivated > 7.00 log CFU/mL of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and 3.29 log CFU/mL of Staphylococcus aureus, as well as efficiently eradicated the bacterial biofilms by disrupting their architectural structures. More importantly, the films inhibited the growth of native bacteria in salmon during storage at 4 °C and 25 °C. Therefore, the PDI-mediated APF is valid in inactivating bacteria and ensuring food quality in the food industry.
期刊介绍:
Food packaging is crucial for preserving food integrity throughout the distribution chain. It safeguards against contamination by physical, chemical, and biological agents, ensuring the safety and quality of processed foods. The evolution of novel food packaging, including modified atmosphere and active packaging, has extended shelf life, enhancing convenience for consumers. Shelf life, the duration a perishable item remains suitable for sale, use, or consumption, is intricately linked with food packaging, emphasizing its role in maintaining product quality and safety.
