Cheese is a product that is susceptible to dangerous microorganisms during the handling or storage process. Producing cheese packaging that can stop the growth of harmful microorganisms is necessary to extend cheese's shelf life. Cheddar cheese was packed with G/CHNF/ZnONPs and then stored for 90 days in the refrigerator. Fat, protein, carbohydrate, and mineral (especially calcium) content decreased during storage time. Cheese samples packaged using G/CHNF/ZnONPs film packaging showed antibacterial activity so the shelf life of the cheese was extended. This shows the potential of G/CHNF/ZnONPs films as packaging for cheese, especially cheddar cheese. © 2024, Rasayan Journal of Chemistry, c/o Dr. Pratima Sharma. All rights reserved.
