摘要: Pullulan-based composite film can be a potential alternative packing material to non-environmentally friendly plastic wrap (PE) to preserve fresh-cut carrots. However, many developed pullulan-based composites either have high water vapor permeability (WVP) and high mechanical strength or vice versa, which limits the practicality of the developed packaging materials for potential commercialization. Herein, Abelmoschus manihot gum (AMG)/ pullulan/magnesium L-ascorbate (MLA) was created as a green composite film (APL) to preserve fresh-cut carrots. The optimal amount of MLA was found to be 10 % (APL10), demonstrating a balance of lower WVP and greater mechanical strength and antioxidant performance than many pullulan-based films. This effectively solved many problems faced by other pullulan-based packaging films. After the fresh-cut carrots were packed with the composite film for 4 days, it was found that APL10 was effective in preserving the quality of carrots, in terms of freshness, weight loss rate, Vitamin C (VC), and malondialdehyde (MDA) content after 4 days of storage, much better than non-biodegradable PE. Thus, based on these findings, it is concluded that APL films have huge potential as a green packaging material for food to replace PE in the future.
