The Effect of Chitosan Type on Biological and Physicochemical Properties of Films with Propolis Extract

The aim of the research was to determine the influence of chitosan type and propolis extract concentration on biological and physicochemical properties of chitosan-propolis films in terms of their applicability in food packaging. The films were prepared using three types of chitosan: from crab shell...
