Abstract:
E. coli, Bacillus subtilis, Fungi were selected for the antibacterial property study. The slow-releasing film loading different antimicrobial substances were studied for their properties of slow-releasing, water vapour transmission and antimicrobial activity. Results showed that the release rates of the film loading rosemary, cinnamon oil, ginger oil and clove were 90.6%, 90.2%, 89.0% and 85.1%, respectively. The water vapor transmission rates were 0.07584, 0.2995, 0.4185 and 0.1193 g/m2.d for the obove-mentioned films. Obvious inhibition zones were observed on E. coli, Bacillus subtilis and Fungi with the selected film. The slow-releasing film loading rosemary showed best characteristics of the above three properties in comparison other films. So it shows great application potential.
