“…This may due to the difference in the cell membrane of bacteria, i.e., E. coli has thinner peptidoglcan layer when compared to S. aureus, and L. monocytogenes. [129,130] The antibacterial action of eugenol incorporated films were due to the eugenol released from the films, which interacted with proteins and lipids and caused bacterial cell membrane disintegration and denaturation, leading to cell lysis. From the results it was concluded that eugenol incorporated antimicrobial films had the potential to prolong the shelf life of pork by 50%.…”

Antimicrobial resistance is increasingly recognized as a serious worldwide threat, jeopardizing medical progress, and the ability to treat infectious illness. Antimicrobial polymers have sparked the interest of researchers because of the increased demand for enhancing human health by lowering illness caused by different bacteria. Polysaccharides are ideal starting materials for the synthesis of antimicrobial polymers due to their bio renewability and broad availability. Starch is one such polysaccharide which has many advantages such as low-cost, nontoxicicity, and renewable sourcing and thus can be used for the synthesis of antimicrobial polymers. Here, the most recent research on starch-based antimicrobial polymers in the context of microbial infections is given in this article. The possibility of employing starch based films to alleviate environmental waste and prevent food spoiling is discussed in this paper. The goal of this study is to show the barrier and mechanical properties of starch containing antimicrobial agents, as well as their antimicrobial activity, in order to improve product storability. This study aims to advance knowledge in this area and urges additional research into the synthesis of starch-based antibacterial materials.
