자몽종자 추출물(GSE)을 0.02, 0.05, 0.08, 0.1%의 농도로 첨가하여 제조한 gelatin 필름의 물성과 항균효과에 대해 조사하였다. 필름의 인장강도는 0.1% GSE를 첨가하였을 경우 10.28 MPa로 대조구의 8.68 MPa에 비하여 1.60 MPa 증가하였으나, GSE 첨가량의 증가에 따라 유의적으로 증가하지는 않았다. 투습계수는 GSE의 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소되는 것을 확인할 수 있었는데, 대조구의 2.48 ngm/m2

The gelatin film containing grapefruit seed extract (GSE) was prepared by incorporating different amounts (0, 0.02, 0.05, 0.08, 0.1%) of GSE into the film. The tensile strength (TS) of the film increased by the addition of GSE, and water vapor permeability (WVP) of the film decreased. In particular, the gelatin film containing 0.1% GSE had a TS of 10.28 MPa, while the control had 8.68 MPa. WVP of the film containing 0.1% GSE decreased to 2.18 ng m/m2 s Pa, compared to 2.48 ng Pa of the control. In addition, incorporation of 0.1% GSE to the gelatin film decreased the populations of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes by 2.67 and 3.15 log CFU/g, respectively, compared to the control. These results suggest that as a packaging material, gelatin film containing GSE can have antimicrobial activity against pathogenic microorganisms in foods.
