INCORPORATION OF ESSENTIAL OILS FROM Piper aduncum INTO FILMS MADE FROM ARROWROOT STARCH: EFFECTS ON THEIR PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY
Starch is a promising source of biopolymers and the incorporation of essential oils (EOs) into it can improve some biological properties of films. This study aimed at developing and characterizing barrier, biodegradability and optical properties of biopolymeric films made from arrowroot starch and a...
