In this study, colorimetric and antioxidant films were developed by using cassava starch (CS), κ-carrageenan (KC) and black nightshade fruit anthocyanins (BNA), and their physical and functional properties were investigated. We found BNA presented significant color changes in different pH solutions. And incorporation of BNA significantly increased the tensile strength, water vapor permeability, UV-vis light barrier property, pH-sensitivity and antioxidant activity of CS-KC film. Results of structural characterization indicated that H-bonds were formed between CS, KC and BNA in films and the film compactness was significantly improved by BNA incorporation. Results of the rheological property assay showed the films had high apparent viscosity with an obvious shear-thinning behavior. When applied to monitoring the quality change of Cyclina sinensis, CS-KC-BNA films exhibited significant color changes with the degradation process of C. sinensis qualities. Our results suggested CS-KC-BNA films could be utilized in smart packaging in food industry.
