Abstract
⺠Chitosan-LDPE extruded films were obtained using ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer. ⺠Ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer ensures adhesion in the interphase of both polymers. ⺠Chitosan forms conglomerates, affecting the mechanical properties of the films. ⺠Chitosan-LDPE extruded films inhibited the radial growth of Aspergillus niger. ⺠Morphological changes and increased diameter of fungi hyphae were induced.
