Journal ArticleDOI
Starch content affects physicochemical properties of corn and cassava starch-based films
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the starch content influence on physicochemical properties of corn and cassava starch-based films manufactured by casting and found that higher starch content promoted an increase in thickness and a reduction in water vapor permeability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of blueberry agro-industrial waste addition to corn starch-based films for the production of a pH-indicator film.
TL;DR: Blueberry powder was added in the films to evaluate its potential as a colorimetric indicator, due to the ability of anthocyanin to change color when placed in an acidic or basic environment, to indicate the potential of blueberry powder as a pH indicator for intelligent food packaging or even for sensing food deterioration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of blueberry residue incorporated cassava starch film as pH indicator in different simulants and foodstuffs

TL;DR: In this article, the color difference of this indicator was evaluated after its application in buffer solutions (pH = 4, 5, 6 and 7), simulants (saline, sucrose and protein solutions) and foodstuffs (orange juice, corn oil and chicken pieces).
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and characterization of cassava starch films incorporated with blueberry pomace.
Cláudia Leites Luchese,Tania Garrido,Jordana Corralo Spada,Isabel Cristina Tessaro,Koro de la Caba +4 more
TL;DR: BP-incorporated films showed good barrier properties against light, indicating their beneficial effect to prevent food deterioration caused by UV radiation when these films are used for food packaging applications, suggesting the potential application of these films as active packaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and characterization of pH-indicator films based on cassava starch and blueberry residue by thermocompression
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of color change and compounds migration were conducted in the films with blueberry residue as pH change indicator, which led to the formation of less compact films with high oxygen permeability, despite the irregular dispersion of the residue on the polymer matrix identified by optical microscopy.
