Physicochemical Properties of Edible and Preservative Films from Chitosan/Cassava Starch/Gelatin Blend Plasticized with Glycerol

Edible films from chitosan, cassava starch, and gelatin plasticized with glycerol have been developed by casting method, and the effects of cassava starch (50, 100 and 150 g per 100 g of chitosan), gelatin (0, 25 and 50 g per 100 g of chitosan) and glycerol (21, 42 and 63 g per 100 g of chitosan) fr...
