Abstract
To address aquatic product preservation challenges, this study developed an intelligent label leveraging natural pigments' antibacterial and responsive properties. A composite film integrating purple sweet potato anthocyanins and curcumin was fabricated via blow-spinning technology. The gelatin-polyvinyl alcohol-chitosan interpenetrating polymer network significantly enhanced film properties, including hydrophobicity (water contact angle: 102.8° ± 1.56°), thermal stability (Peak heat absorption:123 °C), and elongation at break (stress: 1.18 kg/mm2, stain: 43 %). The film delayed tuna spoilage through synergistic mechanisms: curcumin disrupted bacterial biofilm integrity (total bacterial count reduced by 3.37 log CFU/g), inhibited lipid oxidation, while the curcumin/anthocyanin composite film (GC-CR/ATH) reduced metmyoglobin content to 21.8 g/s and delayed browning. The PVA-incorporated GCP-CR/ATH film optimized sustained release of active compounds and maintained fish texture (springiness: 0.42 mm, hardness: 12.5 N) via “antibacterial-antioxidant-pH responsive” synergy. This work provides theoretical support for real-time freshness monitoring and active packaging in aquatic products.
