Resumen
Se desarrollaron y caracterizaron pel.culas comestibles utilizando alginato de sodio al 2% a diferentes
concentraciones de miel de abeja Apis mellifera (0, 1, 2.5 y 5%, p/v) con el fin de evaluar el efecto
de .sta sobre las propiedades fisicoqu.micas, mec.nicas, .pticas y bioactivas. La incorporaci.n de la
miel en un 5% en las pel.culas, present. un mayor espesor (0.14 mm), menor humedad (13.28%) y
menor VTVA (154.86 g/h m2), increment. la elongaci.n de ruptura logrando una mayor plasticidad
y flexi.n, as. como un mayor contenido de polifenoles y capacidad antioxidante, comprob.ndose el
efecto potencial de la adici.n de miel de abeja para el desarrollo de pel.culas comestibles para su
aplicaci.n en la conservaci.n de alimentos.
