Chitosan–Pectin Composite Active Films
Source: Scientific Reports · 2026
A composite film of chitosan and pectin with a plant-derived active fraction showed antioxidant and antimicrobial activity and soil-compost degradability in laboratory tests.
Key findings
- The film showed DPPH-radical scavenging activity and inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli (laboratory conditions).
- Water-vapour transmission and soil-compost degradation were characterised; fresh-cut apple pieces were kept for seven days in a lab-scale preservation test.
- This is an external laboratory result — not verified by Condeboo, and not a food-contact compliance claim.
What this means for your formulation
Active packaging is a fast-moving research front. We track it because pectin's film-forming ability is part of its long-term application potential beyond the jar and the bottle.
