Survival and reduction in foodborne bacteria using methyl cellulose film doped with europium oxide nanoparticles

The study validated the efficacy of methyl cellulose films doped with different concentration of Eu(2)O(3) nanoparticles to inactivate foodborne pathogens. Eu(2)O(3) nanoparticles were added to the methyl cellulose solution with different weight percentages (0.0, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, and 1.5 wt%)....

Sumario:The study validated the efficacy of methyl cellulose films doped with different concentration of Eu(2)O(3) nanoparticles to inactivate foodborne pathogens. Eu(2)O(3) nanoparticles were added to the methyl cellulose solution with different weight percentages (0.0, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, and 1.5 wt%). X‐ray diffraction patterns for the prepared films were studied. A significant lower count of E. coli, S. typhimurium, and S. aureus (p ≤ .05) inoculated in MC films doped with Eu(2)O(3) nanoparticles compared with pure MC film could be achieved. The findings acquired verify the impact of prepared MC films doped with Eu(2)O(3) nanoparticles on the test strains.
