We have investigated the antioxidant properties (FRAP ferric-reducing ability and ABTS radical-scavenging capacity) as well as the light barrier properties of gelatin-based edible films containing oregano or rosemary aqueous extracts. For comparative purposes both bovine-hide and tuna-skin gelatins were studied. The oregano and rosemary extracts were first characterised by both their total phenolic content and antioxidant activity, with the oregano extract showing the higher values. HPLC and confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed qualitative differences between extracts although rosmarinic acid was the most abundant phenolic compound in both. After determining the total quantities of phenolics on films, the polyphenol-protein interaction was found to be more extensive when tuna-skin gelatin was employed. However, this did not clearly affect the antioxidant properties of the films, although it could affect the phenol diffusion from film to food. The light barrier properties were improved by the addition of oregano or rosemary extracts, irrespective of the type of gelatin employed. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
