To explore the use of starfish gelatin (SFG) films as a biodegradable material, researchers at Chungnam National University in Korea extracted SFG from starfish and used it as a film material. In addition, to provide antimicrobial activity and enhanced flavor of the SFG films, vanillin was incorporated.
As the concentration of vanillin increased, the tensile strength of the films increased and water vapor permeability decreased. The microstructure of the SFG films was not affected by the addition of vanillin. In addition, the SFG films containing vanillin exhibited antimicrobial activity. An article about the research is published in Food Science and Biotechnology.
