This work is directed towards developing biodegradable films from biopolymer that is
sustainable and environmentally friendly particularly tapioca starch (TPS) films. However …

Growing demands for the use of biodegradable polymer films in food packaging have led to
studies on several sources of non-conventional starches. Corn starch (CS), is the most …

Nowadays, the development of biodegradable packaging materials from natural renewable
sources has attained great attraction in the research field to mitigate environmental …

The aim of this study was to obtain and characterize biodegradable films of cassava starch
plasticized with glycerol and reinforced with nanocellulose from coconut fibers. The …

Starch is a biodegradable biopolymer with great potential for developing novel
biodegradable products. However, Starch can be derivatized to improve its functionality and …

Nowadays, the need for biodegradable plastics is increasing because they are
environmentally friendly and can replace petroleum-based non-degradable plastics that …

The objectives of this work were to produce fructooligosaccharides (FOSs) by using the
microorganism Bacillus subtilis natto CCT 7712 and to employ these FOSs as a functional …

The starch-based film development has been extensively studied since, in general, it is
possible to obtain transparent, non-toxic, odorless, good gas barrier, biodegradable, and …

The aim of this study was to characterize chayotextle starch films reinforced with cellulose
(C) and cellulose nanoparticle (CN)(at concentrations of 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.8% and 1.2%), using …

Cassava starch is in high demand due to its availability, low-cost and unique functional
features. Cassava starch modification is required to create new techno-functionalities for …
