摘要
This study aimed to develop bioactive films based on curdlan(CD)and sodium alginate(SA)to enhance the shelf life of the Volvariella volvacea mushroom.A stable nanoemulsion of droplet size of 150.1±5 nm was first formulated using 5%soy protein(Sp)and 10%lavender essential oil(LEO),achieved by ultrasound treatment for 10 min,resulting in small droplet sizes.In parallel,a CD-SA film was prepared by mixing them in a 1:1 ratio.The SpLEO nanoemulsion was then ex situ added to the CD-SA film at varying concentrations(4%,6%,8%,and 10%).The resulting bioactive film exhibited desirable properties,including water vapor permeability(1.15±0.05×10^(-10)g m^(-1)Pa^(-1)s^(-1)),swelling rate(547%),and tensile strength(10.1±1.3 MPa).Docking and structural analyses suggested that ultrasound treatment enhanced the intermolecular hydrogen bonding,creating a uniform and regular surface and reduced crystallinity.The CD-SA film with ultrasound-treated 8%SpLEO nanoemulsion[i.e.,(CD-SA/SpLEO-8)US]showed antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus and extended the freshness of straw mushrooms prevention of spoilage during storage.Additionally,the film reduced respiration rate(975 mg CO_(2)/kg/h at 96 h)and ethylene production(160 ng/kg/s by 96 h)while effectively inhibiting straw mushroom autolysis.This led to a reduction in browning(2.91),total soluble solids(7.5%),weight loss(13.9%),and polyphenol oxidase activity(0.08ΔOD_(420)/min⋅g),thereby extending the shelf life of the mushrooms to 96 h.These findings highlight the potential of incorporating different molecules using ultrasound treatment to develop innovative edible films for food preservation.
