    Abstract:
    In this study, a promising active food-packaging film of Gelatin/polyvinyl alcohol (GEL/PVA) integrated with doubly stabilized clove essential oil chitosome nanoparticles (CNP) was developed to maintain the freshness of marinated steaks. Results from the XRD and SEM experiments indicated excellent compatibility between the CNP and GEL/PVA matrix. Additionally, CNP was found to introduce more free hydroxyl groups, enhance the water retention and surface wettability of the CNP-GEL/PVA (C-G/P) film, and significantly reduce the swelling index from 963.78% to 495.11% (p < 0.05). Notably, the highest tensile strength and elongation at break (53.745 MPa and 46.536%, respectively) were achieved with the addition of 30% (v/v, based on the volume of gelatin) CNP; UVC was fully absorbed with 40% CNP; and films containing 60% CNP showed optimal inhibition of both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coil, extending the shelf life of marinated steak from 3 to 7 days.
