Extensive research is currently dedicated to creating biodegradable packaging materials that match the qualities of traditional synthetic packaging materials. Among these options, polylactic acid (PLA) is noteworthy. PLA is a renewable‐source‐derived thermoplastic polymer with excellent barrier properties, mechanical strength, and a strong safety profile. To enhance food product shelf life, active packaging materials, incorporating functional ingredients like antimicrobials, have gained prominence. Peppermint essential oil is one such active ingredient, offering potential improvements in preserving food freshness and safety. This study's objective is to craft antimicrobial, biodegradable food packaging materials by blending peppermint oil into PLA films. Various peppermint oil concentrations (1.25%, 1.875%, and 2.5% w/v) were blended with PLA to assess their impact on opacity, water vapor permeability (WVP), mechanical and thermal properties, and antimicrobial characteristics. Higher peppermint oil concentrations increased opacity, making them advantageous for light‐sensitive food items. These films reduced WVP without affecting PLA's thermal stability. Antimicrobial effectiveness was evaluated against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), showing inhibition with 1.875% and 2.5% w/v peppermint oil concentrations. Compared to control, PLA films with peppermint oil extended the shelf life of packaged chicken breast meats from 3 to 8 days. As a result, incorporating peppermint oil into PLA films presents a promising solution for advanced antimicrobial and biodegradable food packaging.Highlights The incorporation of peppermint oil resulted in higher opacity values. Peppermint incorporated PLA films showed antimicrobial activity. Peppermint oil addition decreased water vapor permeability of PLA films. Peppermint oil added PLA films increased the shelf life of chicken meat up to 8 days.

In recent years, development of biopolymeric nanofibers as an active biodegradable packaging system has attracted specific attention. The objective of this research was to develop zein‐based electrospun nanofibers (NFs) incorporated with geraniol‐loaded nanoliposomes (G‐loaded NLPs). Geraniol was encapsulated into NLPs with an efficiency of 79.23%. The particle size and zeta potential of G‐loaded NLPs were 121.50 nm and −38.30 mV, respectively. The successful loading of geraniol in the NLPs was approved by Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy. The liposomal vesicles showed spherical shapes. G‐loaded NLPs were added in the zein‐based electrospun NFs at three different concentrations (0.25, 0.5, and 1%w/v). All NFs samples exhibited fibrillar structure. The increase of NLPs concentration enhanced the thermal stability of the NFs. However, the crystalline structure of zein NFs did not change by the addition of G‐loaded NLPs. The highest surface hydrophobicity was related to the NFs containing 1% G‐loaded NLPs. The mechanical parameters of NFs depend on the concentration of NLPs. The NFs incorporated with G‐loaded NLPs showed inhibition activity against four foodborne pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella typhimurium) with an inhibition zone of 4.5–22 mm. Moreover, the α‐diphenyl‐β‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity of NFs samples was located at the range of 20%–48%. These findings represent the Efficiency of the G‐loaded NLPs for use as bioactive compound in the zein‐based NFs as an active packaging material.
