Popis: Effects of α 1 /α 2 ratios and drying temperatures on the properties of tilapia skin gelatin films were investigated. Tensile strength (TS) of α 1 -subunit based films and α 2 -subunit based films were 30.4 MPa and 12.8 MPa, respectively. When films were prepared from α-subunits at α 1 /α 2 ratio of 2/1, both TS and elongation at break (EAB) of films were the highest. The color of α-subunit based composite films was similar to that of α 2 -subunit based films. However, no obvious changes in the SDS-PAGE patterns were observed between film-forming solutions and films. On the other hand, the TS and EAB of α-subunit based composite films prepared at 10 °C or 15 °C were much higher than those of films prepared at 20 °C or 25 °C. Circular dichroism analysis revealed that triple helical structure was formed in the films containing α 1 -subunit dried at 15 °C or below, thus forming strong strength films.
