Effects of Bioactive Packaging Films Incorporated with Bifidocin A on Microbial Reduction and Quality Parameters of Chill-Stored Spanish Mackerel (Scomberomorus niphonius) Fillets

Table 1

Thickness, tensile strength, and elongation at break of the films incorporated without/with 1 × MIC, 2 × MIC, and 4 × MIC bifidocin A.

Treatments	Thickness (mm)	Tensile strength (MPa)	Elongation at break (%)
Control	0.66 ± 0.02^a	7.17 ± 0.26^a	3.64 ± 0.15^a
1 × MIC	0.66 ± 0.01^a	5.68 ± 0.42^b	3.59 ± 0.23^a
2 × MIC	0.69 ± 0.02^a	5.46 ± 0.31^b	3.38 ± 0.13^a
4 × MIC	0.71 ± 0.03^a	4.89 ± 0.25^c	3.20 ± 0.19^a

Values are expressed as means ± standard deviation. Different superscripts (a, b, and c) in the same column indicate significant difference ().
