Agar-based bioactive-composite packaging films reinforced with lignin-containing cellulose (LCC) and enriched with date seed bioactives extracted using choline chloride-urea deep eutectic solvent.
Bioactive packaging material was developed by reinforcing lignin-containing cellulose fraction (LCC) and bioactive components from date seed powder (BC-DSP) into agar-carboxymethyl cellulose (A/CMC) and agar-chitosan (A/CS) composite films. Deep eutectic solvent (DES) mediated microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) was us...
