The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Chitosan-gelatin composites and bi-layer films with potential antimicrobial activity (2011, background): “Coma et al. (2002), however, detected restricted inhibitory activity of chitosan forming solution against L.”
Antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of edible coatings enriched with natural plant extracts: in vitro and in vivo studies. (2008, unknown): “These authors also detected limited inhibitory activity of chitosanforming solution against L. monocytogenes (Coma et al., 2002).”
A preliminary study of the incorparation of NPK fertilizer into chitosan nanoparticles (2010, background): “Chitosan (CS) is a polymer of particular interest in this area because it is biodegradable, bioabsorbable, and bactericidal [9, 10].”
Improvement of active chitosan film properties with rosemary essential oil for food packaging (2012, background): “This effect of chitosan may be related to the fact that chitosan does not diffuse through the adjacent agar media in the agar diffusion test method, so that only organisms in direct contact with the active sites of chitosan are inhibited (Coma et al., 2002).”
Polysaccharides as Edible Films and Coatings: Characteristics and Influence on Fruit and Vegetable Quality—A Review (2021, background): “Coatings are formed on the surface of fruit or vegetables from a liquid solution by dipping in a film-forming mixture, as well as by spraying or lubricating the surface [24].”
