With the improvement of consumer awareness of food safety and the increasing concern about plastic pollution, the development of novel intelligent packaging film is imminent. This project aims to develop an environmentally friendly pH-sensitive intelligent food packaging film for meat freshness monitoring. In this study, anthocyanin-rich extract from black rice (AEBR) was added to composite film formed by the co-polymerisation of pectin and chitosan. AEBR showed strong antioxidant activity, and different colour responses to different conditions. The mechanical properties of the composite film remarkably improved when AEBR was incorporated into. Besides, the introduction of anthocyanins enables the colour of composite film to change from red to blue with the degree of meat spoilage increased which shows the indicative effect of composite films on meat putrification. Therefore, the AEBR-loaded pectin/chitosan film could be used as an indicator to monitor meat freshness in real-time.
