Abstract
In this study, the CS-DAS aerogels were prepared using chitosan (CS) crosslinked by dialdehyde starch (DAS), with the best absorption and mechanical properties at the weight ratio of CS to DAS being 7:3. The copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were first prepared by green reduction method, then encapsulated by liposomes (Lip-CuNPs) for controlling their sudden release. The antibacterial aerogels (CD/Lip-CuNPs) were developed by incorporating the Lip-CuNPs into the aerogel (7:3). The porous network structure of aerogels realized the further gradual release of CuNPs. The CD/Lip-CuNPs aerogels had good antimicrobial properties, which could preserve fresh pork for 14 d at 4 °C without spoilage. Moreover, the CuNPs migrated from the aerogels into fresh pork was at a safe level of 3.38 mg/kg after 14 d at 4 °C. The obtained antibacterial CD/Lip-CuNPs aerogels had the potential for extending the shelf life of fresh meat.
期刊介绍:
Food Control is an international journal that provides essential information for those involved in food safety and process control.
Food Control covers the below areas that relate to food process control or to food safety of human foods:
• Microbial food safety and antimicrobial systems
• Mycotoxins
• Hazard analysis, HACCP and food safety objectives
• Risk assessment, including microbial and chemical hazards
• Quality assurance
• Good manufacturing practices
• Food process systems design and control
• Food Packaging technology and materials in contact with foods
• Rapid methods of analysis and detection, including sensor technology
• Codes of practice, legislation and international harmonization
• Consumer issues
• Education, training and research needs.
The scope of Food Control is comprehensive and includes original research papers, authoritative reviews, short communications, comment articles that report on new developments in food control, and position papers.
