| Abstract/Description: | Composite films were developed by embedding nanochitosan (0.5 percentage, 1 percentage and 2 percentage) in a polylactic acid (PLA) matrix using polyethylene glycol as a cross linking agent and polyvinyl alcohol as plasticizer. The mixture was casted into films via solvent casting. The interaction between the polylactic acid/nanochitosan (PLA/NCS) and polyethylene glycol had a significant effect on the tensile strength and the heat sealing properties. Antimicrobial properties of PLA/NCS films have been confirmed against aerobic microorganisms. PLA/NCS solvent casted films were used to pack prawn meat (Fenneropeneaus indicus) which was further stored in chilled condition for 18 days. The study proved that microbial and biochemical quality indices of prawn samples packed in different PLA/NCS film were retained and concluded that PLA/NCS composite films can be used for packing of fresh prawn to increase its shelf life. |
