Work Experience

Project :
“Development of biodegradable packaging material for food irradiation application”

Results Achieved:
Development and physiochemical characteristics analysis of standalone packaging films from guar gum. Radiation induces better mechanical properties of films.
Incorporation of nanoclays further improved the film characteristic. Optimization of various film additives to develop films having better properties than commercially available cling films. Active guar gum packaging (antimicrobial and antioxidant properties) was developed by incorporating grape pomace extract. Potential application of developed films was successfully demonstrated by storing the pomegranate arils for 1 week packed in biodegradable films. Sensory, nutraceutical and microbial quality of packed product were equivalent to commercially available cling films packed product and safe for human consumption. Ready to eat minimally processed fruits were developed and their shelf life extended by 10 days using edible dip coatings.

Milestone achieved: Incubation of Technology:
The technology used to developed biodegradable films undergone in an incubation period of 18 month on May 21, 2014. A MoU has signed between BARC Center for Incubation of Technologies (BARCIT) and M/s Veena Industries, Nagpur to further develop the films for commercial purpose.

Techniques used:
GC/MS, HPLC, GPC, FT-IR, FEG-SEM, XRD, SAXS, Colorimeter, Texture Analyzer, DLS, ELS, TGA.
