LDPE and PLA Active Food Packaging Incorporated with Lemon by-Products Extract:...
Andrade, M.A.; Barbosa, C.H.; Mariño-Cortegoso, S.; Barbosa-Pereira, L.; Sendón, R.; Buonocore, G.G.; Stanzione, M.; Coelho, A.; Correia, C.B.Low-density polyethylene-based packaging with 4% lemon extract (LDPE/4LE) and two polylactic-based (PLA) packaging materials with 4% and 6% lemon extract (PLA/PEG/4LE and PLA/6LE) were produced. O2 and water permeability tests were performed, the total and individual phenolic compounds content were measured, and the films’ antioxidant activities were determined. The films’ ability to delay lipid oxidation was t...
Green tea extract and nanocellulose embedded into polylactic acid film: propert...
Vilarinho, F.; Stanzione, M; Buonocore, G; Vaz, F; Silva, A.S.Eco-friendly and antioxidant bioactive films based on polylactic acid (PLA), loaded with cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and green tea extract (GTE) were prepared by direct melt processing. GTE was chemically characterized by using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. The antioxidant, physical, thermal, mechanical and microstructural properties of the produced films...

Projeto i.FILM - Filmes Multifuncionais para Aplicação em Embalagens Ativas e I...
Sanches Silva, A.; Khwaldia, Khaoula; Vilarinho, F.; Andrade, M.; Ramos, F.In recent years, new food packaging materials and processing techniques have attracted attention from the scientific community, industry and consumers. Some of these new materials are obtained from renewable resources but do not present satisfactory mechanical and/or barrier properties, therefore solutions in order to improve their performance are required. Moreover multifunctional materials are preferable in o...
