Abstract
In this study, an active film was developed based on β-glucan (BG)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/clove essential oil (CEO) and its preservation effects on fresh broad bean pods were examined. The impact of different BG:PVA ratios (50:50, 40:60 and 30:70) and CEO concentrations (0.25%, 0.50% and 1.00%) on the capacities of film were investigated. A BG:PVA ratio of 40:60 and CEO content of 0.5% (w/w) were adopted following the optimization of the physical, mechanical and barrier capacities of the blended film. Subsequent characterization of the film via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy suggested that the BG hydroxyl groups interacted well with the PVA and CEO, and the good heat stability of the BG/PVA-CEO film was confirmed via thermal gravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry. Importantly, the BG/PVA-CEO film also showed good antimicrobial activity. Moreover, the BG/PVA-0.5% CEO film effectively preserved fresh broad bean pods over a 30-day storage period, based on assessments of appearance, firmness, weight loss and the enzyme activities. These results indicate the promising applicability of the novel BG/PVA-CEO films as active coating materials for the preservation of fresh produce and food products.

Food Control covers the below areas that relate to food process control or to food safety of human foods:
• Microbial food safety and antimicrobial systems
• Mycotoxins
• Hazard analysis, HACCP and food safety objectives
• Risk assessment, including microbial and chemical hazards
• Quality assurance
• Good manufacturing practices
• Food process systems design and control
• Food Packaging technology and materials in contact with foods
• Rapid methods of analysis and detection, including sensor technology
• Codes of practice, legislation and international harmonization
• Consumer issues
• Education, training and research needs.
The scope of Food Control is comprehensive and includes original research papers, authoritative reviews, short communications, comment articles that report on new developments in food control, and position papers.
