Description
Laura Mitrea and co-authors coat strawberries in rosemary films in a 2026 paper. The base film comes from seaweed starch and is safe to eat. Rosemary waste from oil making adds germ fighting power to the film.
Films with the extract grew thicker and denser, and held less water. Light block rose, while vapor pass rose a touch. On fresh berries kept cold for two weeks, coated fruit held far fewer germs. Mold and yeast counts fell in coated fruit as well. Plant waste thus turns into a wrap that keeps soft fruit fresh longer.
