Smart edible films sensitive to pH
Jarošová, Gabriela ; Kovalčík, Adriána (referee) ; Veselá, Mária (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on smart edible films sensitive to pH. The theoretical part deals with smart packaging including legislation. The main compound for the film preparation is chitosan, which is described and anthocyanins serving as the color indicator. At first, the anthocyanins were isolated from red cabbage using extraction. The edible films were prepared from chitosan, corn starch and anthocyanins. Pentasodium triphosphate was used as a crosslinking agent. The layers were subjected to the solubility test, which showed smallest decrease in case of fast drying in the dryer, namely 14,5 %. The color reaction on the pH change was studied. It was found that the prepared layers reacted to every pH change, the most significant reaction was to pH 1 and 3.
