Effect of kafirin-based films incorporating citral and quercetin on storage of fresh chicken fillets

This study investigated mechanical and bioactive properties of kafirin films consisting of 2.5% citral (CK), 2% quercetin (QK) or 1.25% citral + 1% quercetin (CQK). Incorporation of citral reduced the maximum stress (smax) and stiffness, accompanied by an increase in the strain at break (eb), and yi...
