This study developed two novel food packaging films, oat protein/pullulan (Op/Pul) and Nisin-loaded oat protein/pullulan (Nis@Op/Pul) films. Ultrasound was introduced to improve its mechanical, structural and physicochemical properties. The Op/Pul film has lower light transmittance, water vapour and oxygen permeability (OP) and improved film uniformity than pure oat protein and pullulan film. The addition of Nisin led to a significant decrease in the composite films' transparency, moisture content, and total soluble matter (TSM). The ultrasound treatment significantly increased the elongation at break and transparency of Nis@Op/Pul film by 18.37% and 8.03% and decreased its TSM and OP by 8.33% and 2.78%, respectively, compared to the conventional method. The structure analysis shows ultrasound enhances intermolecular hydrogen bonding, reduces the crystallinity and formed a more regular, uniform surface. Moreover, the Nis@Op/Pul film prepared by ultrasound treatment could effectively delay the decay and deterioration of fresh strawberries and prolong their shelf life.
