Polysaccharide/protein nanomultilayer coatings: construction, characterization and evaluation of their effect on 'Rocha' pear (Pyrus communis L.) shelf-life

Nanolayered coatings of κ-carrageenan, a polysaccharide with good gas barrier properties, and lysozyme, a protein with antimicrobial action, were in a first stage assembled on aminolysed/charged polyethylene terephthalate (PET) pieces, which acted as a support, by alternate five-layer deposition. Th...
