Abstract
Fish gelatin (FG) and octenyl succinic anhydride starch (OSAS) composite films loaded with 1, 2, 3 and 4 wt% bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) and Satureja Khuzestanica Jamzad essential oil (SKEO) were achieved successfully and their physicochemical and release properties were investigated. The results revealed that incorporation of BNC improved the tensile strength which was associated with FE-SEM, FTIR and XRD. Moreover, this study focused on the release modeling of SKEO in 4, 25 and 37 °C from nanocomposite films using different release kinetic and Arrhenius models. Also, analysis of variance-simultaneous component analysis (ASCA) and exploratory data visualization by principal component analysis (PCA) were carried out to investigate the effects of two controlled factors. Consequently, the Peleg model showed the best fitting of experimental data. The activation energies decreased by increasing the BNC concentration. This research demonstrated the nanocomposite film containing SKEO would be a suitable candidate for active food packaging.
