Preparation of Chitosan-Gelatin Sustained-Release Film Incorporated with Resveratrol-Loaded Emulsion and Its Preservation Effect on Prepared Steak by DU Liying, REN Guoyan, ZHAO Bing, SHI Yuxuan, CHENG Xiaoyu

“…In order to develop efficient preserving materials for meat products, sustained-release preservative composite films (CS-GEL-PE) were prepared by casting a mixed solution of chitosan (CS) and gelatin (GEL) added with different volume proportions (2%, 4%, 6% and 8%) of Pickering emulsion (PE) loaded with resveratrol (RES). The microstructure and physical properties of the films were determined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and an intelligent electronic tensile testing machine, and antioxidant activity, sustained-release performance, and their preservation effect on prepared steak was analyzed. …”
