Sustainable development of chitosan-gelatin composite films for food packaging using crude chitosan extracted from American lobster (Homarus americanus) shell waste

In this study, crude chitosan extracted from American lobster shells (Homarus americanus) was used to develop bio-based films. These films were prepared using solvent casting at various drying temperatures (37, 60, and 80 °C) and enhanced by blending with sunflower oil and gelatin from fish skin. St...
