Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a pectin based antimicrobial surface coating material. In the present invention, boron compounds are cross-linked with pectin and a surface coating material in the form of a film is obtained. The said coating material can be used in all packaging industry requiring hygiene particularly in food industry. The invention enables packages to be antifungal, anticandidal and antibacterial.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material, comprising a pectin and a boron compound, the boron compound comprising sodium pentaborate or disodium octaborate, wherein the boron compound is cross-linked with the pectin, wherein the boron compound comprises 5% to 15% by mass of the coating material of sodium pentaborate or 5% to 15% by mass of the coating material of disodium octaborate, wherein the average thickness of the pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material is 0.15 mm to 0.18 mm, and wherein the average tensile strength of the pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material is 1070 g to 2170 g. 2. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 1 , possessing antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. 3. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 1 , possessing anticandidal properties against Candida albicans yeast. 4. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 1 , possessing antifungal properties against Aspergillus niger fungus. 5. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 1 , wherein the pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material is an antimicrobial material in packaging industry requiring hygiene. 6. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 1 , wherein the pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material is in a form of a liquid or powder. 7. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 1 , wherein the pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material is an antimicrobial material to protect fruits and vegetables via spraying or immersion. 8. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 2 , possessing anticandidal properties against Candida albicans yeast. 9. The pectin-based antimicrobial surface coating material according to claim 3 , possessing antifungal properties against Aspergillus niger fungus.
