About this document

Edible Films from Potato Starch for Food Coating by joaquin.guzman is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study focuses on the development and characterization of biodegradable edible films made from native potato starch and glycerol as a plasticizer, aimed at food preservation. The research found that a 4% concentration of starch produced films with optimal mechanical properties, rapid degradation, and suitability for food coatings. The results indicate that these films are a viable alternative to synthetic polymers, addressing environmental concerns while maintaining food quality.
