This study aimed to develop a cellulose-based active food packaging material using paper, a biodegradable, sustainable, recyclable, renewable, and relatively low-cost material. For electrospray coating, fulvic acid (FA), which has antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, and sericin (S) were used as an active agent and a carrier medium, respectively. Solutions prepared at various concentrations and ratios of FA and S were analyzed, the properties of the active packaging material were examined, and the effect on the quality of pears was studied. The optimum conditions of electrospraying for minimum droplet size and maximum antibacterial effect were 0.8g/mL concentration of solutions, 1:1 FA:S ratio, 20kV voltage, 0.75mL/h flow rate, and 23cm collector-needle tip distance. FA had static, lethal, and inhibitory effects on Pseudomonas syringae and P. digitatum, the common pathogenic microorganisms on pears. The antioxidant activity of FA was higher than that of S (872.96mM vs. 239.36mM). At the end of the 90-day storage period, pears stored in the active packaging material at 7°C and 90% RH showed better preserved color and texture, matured later, had a lower antimicrobial load, and were more appreciated in sensory evaluation than other samples.
