| Abstract | Films containing antibacterial compounds could be used for packaging perishable foods such as fresh fish and meat for sea freighting over long distances. However, existing commercialised options (films with nanosilver zeolites or wasabi extract) are only permitted for food contact in certain regions and films containing alternative antibacterial ingredients are required e.g. for exports to Europe. Certain non-volatile phenolic plant extracts have shown promising antibacterial activity against a wide range of foodborne bacteria in in vitro assays and when integrated in coatings for perishable foods such as fish and meat. Extracts rich in gallotannins tend to show stronger antibacterial effects than other phenols such as flavonoids. Such extracts could be coated onto commercial barrier films by means of flexographic printing—a more industrially feasible option than rod coating or solvent casting typically used in antibacterial coating research. The goal of the present work was to investigate the antibacterial effect of printed latex coatings containing extracts rich in gallotannins and other types of phenolic compounds against 16 common spoilage and pathogenic bacteria of fish and meat. The largest zones of inhibition in disk diffusion assays were obtained with plastic films with coatings containing tannic acid alone, followed by tannic acid with phenolic-rich extracts of feijoa skin or mango seed. Significant inhibition was seen for all bacteria. This study shows that coatings with gallotannins as the main active ingredient can be printed onto commercial barrier films to control the bacteria that limit the shelf-life of fresh fish and meat. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
