However, the traditional preparation of nano-sized γ-CD-MOFs is commonly achieved by the use of size regulators, which are toxic and cannot be completely removed, resulting in their inability to be applied in food packaging. In this study, a green synthesis method for nano-sized γ-CD-MOFs (200–800 nm) without the size regulators was successfully formulated. Crystal size was controlled by adjusting three factors: the concentrations of γ-CD and K<sup>+</sup>, the rate of ethanol addition and the number of ethanol washes. Ultrasmall-sized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of 1–2 nm were successfully prepared using nano-sized γ-CD-MOFs as templates, which increased the silver load rate up to 3.008 %. Moreover, a new packaging film assembled by AgNPs, γ-CD-MOFs and polylactic acid (AgNPs@γ-CD-MOFs/PLA) was prepared, and its inhibition rates against <em>Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus</em>, and <em>Pseudomonas tolaasii</em> reached more than 80 %, which exhibited good antimicrobial capabilities. Furthermore, the oxygen and water vapor transmission rates (RH 50 %) of AgNPs@γ-CD-MOFs/PLA respectively reached 1204 cm<sup>3</sup>/ (m<sup>2</sup> ∙ d ∙ 0.1 MPa) and 1710.267 g/ (m<sup>2</sup> ∙ 24 h), which were significantly higher than traditional polyethylene (PE) packaging. In addition, compared with PE and PLA, the AgNPs@γ-CD-MOFs/PLA could effectively inhibit bacterial brown spot of <em>Agaricus bisporus</em> and maintained a better appearance after 12 days of storage. These findings will expand the applications of nano-sized γ-CD-MOFs in food preservation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12377,"journal":{"name":"Food Packaging and Shelf Life","volume":"47 ","pages":"Article 101449"},"PeriodicalIF":8.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143095280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this study designed bilayer films consisting of PLA layer and a PE layer. In the PE layer, binary nanoparticles composed of soybean protein isolate (SPI) and CS were used as solid supports to load increasing amounts (0 %, 2 %, 4 %, 6 %, 8 %, v/v) of complex essential oils (carvacrol and thymol, CT). The films were labeled BF-CT0, BF-CT2, BF-CT4, BF-CT6, and BF-CT8. The characteristics and functional properties were evaluated, along with the quality changes in refrigerated pork wrapped with the films (BF-CT0 or BF-CT8). Results indicated that CT addition significantly enhanced the stability of the PE. The PE layer with higher CT doses exhibited a denser microstructure, more hydrophobic surface, improved elongation at break, and greater water resistance. CT addition significantly improved light and gas barrier functions. Notably, the BF-CT8 film demonstrated extremely low water vapor and oxygen permeability (1.25 ± 0.06 kg•m⁻¹•s⁻¹•Pa⁻¹ and 0.24 ± 0.01 kg•m⁻¹•s⁻¹•bar⁻¹, respectively). All films showed a similar semi-crystalline structure, and CT addition decreased crystallinity. As expected, BF-CT8 displayed enhanced antioxidant and antibacterial performance. Finally, BF-CT8 extended the shelf life of refrigerated pork from 3 days to 6 days compared to BF-CT0 and unwrapped pork.

However, this film had the highest % elongation. 1 % TGase film was the toughest to break, recording the highest total area (5758 g.sec) followed by the Control (5628 g.sec). TGase cross-linked films possessed higher (P < 0.05) water holding capacity (WHC) than that of Control films. As investigated through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), TGase-treated films revealed different degrees of protein cross-linking as a function of enzyme concentration.
