Chapter 9 – Edible Films and Coatings: A Review

TL;DR: In this article, Gennadios et al. proposed a method to control fabrication process conditions, which is very important because the changes in treatment conditions can alter kinetics and reaction mechanisms (Guilbert et al., 1996, 1997).

Recent advances in quality preservation of postharvest mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus): A review

TL;DR: In this paper, a review summarises quality degradation processes of mushrooms including moisture loss, discolouration, texture changes, microbial count increasing, and nutrients and flavour loss, analyses their influential factors including temperature, relative humidity, water activity, and respiration rate, and presents the preservation methods for mushrooms including drying, cooling, packaging, irradiation, washing, and coating.

Edible films and coatings: Sources, properties and application

TL;DR: In this paper, the most characteristic subgroups from each large group of compounds were selected and described regarding possible physical and mechanical protection; migration, permeation, and barrier functions, and it can be concluded that edible films and coatings must be chosen for food packaging purpose according to specific applications, the types of food products, and the major mechanisms of quality deterioration.

A simple and ultrasensitive method for determination of free fatty acid by radiochemical assay.

TL;DR: The molar ratio of FFA to Co in Co-FA complex was found to be 2.03, a cobaltous salt of fatty acid, and this factor of 2 can be used directly for the calculation of the FFA content in the unknown sample, reflecting the reliability of this method.

Physical and mechanical properties of water resistant sodium alginate films

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of sodium alginate films were modified using two different methods of CaCl2 treatment, i.e., the direct addition of caCl2 into film making solution (mixing films) and the immersion of alginates into CaCl 2 solutions (immersion films), and their treatment effects on tensile strength, percentage elongation at break (E), water vapor permeability (WVP), and water solubility (WS) of the films were investigated.
