Although gelatin/chitosan (GC) films are inherently biocompatible and biodegradable, their application is limited by inadequate mechanical strength, insufficient ultraviolet (UV) barrier properties, and poor antimicrobial efficacy. To overcome these constraints, a stable berberine-palmitate complex (BP) was synthesized via ion exchange between berberine hydrochloride and sodium palmitate and uniformly integrated into the GC matrix. The resulting BP/GC composite films benefit from multiscale interactions, including hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, and hydrophobic forces, which collectively enhance their structural integrity and functionality. The optimized BP/GC films exhibit high optical transparency (> 80 % at 660 nm), improved mechanical strength, a low water vapor permeability (< 5 × 10⁻¹¹ g·m⁻¹·s⁻¹·Pa⁻¹), and effective UV-shielding. Crucially, BP imparts pronounced photodynamic inactivation (PDI) activity. While the films show inherent antibacterial activity in the dark, visible-light irradiation triggers substantial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, leading to > 99.2 % inactivation of key foodborne pathogens (<em>Escherichia coli</em> and <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em>). In a practical food‑packaging scenario, the light‑activated BP/GC films demonstrated reliable suppression of bacterial growth, underscoring their potential to prolong food preservation. These results establish BP/GC films as a viable, multifunctional alternative to conventional plastics, with the inherent PDI activity offering a promising route to enhance food safety and reduce packaging waste.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12377,"journal":{"name":"Food Packaging and Shelf Life","volume":"53 ","pages":"Article 101705"},"PeriodicalIF":10.6,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145973257","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}
